The game industry is the largest cultural industry in the world. Its economic growth relies in part on the artistic innovations of non-commercial developers and communities operating beyond the industry’s purview. Policymakers and researchers alike struggle to account for the cultural contexts and creative origins of game development. This project conceptualises and empirically investigates ‘artist-gamemaking’ to generate new knowledge on the ambitions, techniques and histories of Australia’s game industry. It develops resources that will enable cultural institutions to better support them. This research is important as it articulates the cultural and economic value of a vital site of creative practice in contemporary Australia.

游戏产业是世界上最大的文化产业。它的经济增长部分依赖于非商业开发商和超出行业范围的社区的艺术创新。政策制定者和研究人员都在努力解释游戏开发的文化背景和创意来源。该项目对“艺术家游戏制作”进行概念化和实证调查，以产生有关澳大利亚游戏行业的雄心、技术和历史的新知识。它开发资源，使文化机构能够更好地支持他们。这项研究很重要，因为它阐明了当代澳大利亚创造性实践的重要场所的文化和经济价值。
