We're calling this project "the notgames initative". The idea is to explore the potential of digital entertainment and art that is not games. By explicitly rejecting the typical game elements of rules and goals and challenges and rewards, we hope to discover new ways to delight and enlighten our audience. Ways that give us more freedom in terms of choice of subject matter and emotional response.

It's important to point out that "notgames" is not a category of entertainment or art. Instead it is a method of design, a challenge to designers and artists. "Notgames" is not an ideology either. It's not necessary to radically choose to never make games again. You can make a game one day, and a "not-so-game" the other. It's about broadening the spectrum, not narrowing it down.
