Power Game, 
1974

6 mins 30 secs

Power Game was originally taped to document and provide a live broadcast of the initial performance of Power Game as played at the Festival for Chilean Liberation at the Royal College of Art in 1974. Staged as an altered game of Chemin de Fer, using a pack of cards I both invented and designed, each card having one word printed on each side, Power Game is a farce and an investigation of the meaning and workings of power by and on a group of invited players.

1 hour video made with Alaistair McKintosh and Great Georges Project, The Blackie, Liverpool.
