Description
"Hotel Synthifornia ironically paraphrases the Eagles all-time-classic: 'Such a lovely place, such a lovely face... Relax!' Find yourself caught by the schizophrenic interpretation of a shoot-up game like Epic Games' Unreal. The semantic shift from shoot-up to chill-down confronts concepts of privacy and self-determination with the notorious public participation of the conventional deathmatch. Under these circumstances public space can prove to be lethal, and as a consequence 'Gemütlichkeit' might be a quality worth while being rediscovered collectively." Micz Flor, Public Netbase
