摘要
《A Secret Heliotropism》是一款简短的选择冒险游戏故事,灵感来自Walter Benjamin的《On the Concept of History》,特别是第12、13和14条。玩家可以在(非常)抽象的阶级斗争历史中选择一系列革命运动的道路。这款游戏旨在唤起本雅明对当时对抗法西斯主义的进步政治(即“社会民主主义理论”)的批评,他认为历史进步是人类在“同质的、空洞的时间”中准确无误地前进的无限完美性。然而,对本雅明来说,从历史唯物主义的角度理解的进步集中在被压迫阶级的斗争上,他们试图打断历史的连续性。希望这能反映在玩家为解放而反复的斗争中,最终在Benjamin对Paul Klee的画作Angelus Novus的反思中达到高潮。“A Secret Heliotropism”可以在这里玩https://bit.ly/3aHcCdG。要播放,请下载.html文件并在浏览器中打开它。
‘A Secret Heliotropism’ is a short choose-your-own-adventure game story loosely inspired by Walter Benjamin’s On the Concept of History, particularly theses 12, 13 and 14. Players choose the path of a series of revolutionary movements throughout a (very) abstract history of class struggle. The game is meant to evoke Benjamin’s criticism of the progressive politics (namely ‘Social Democratic theory’) facing down fascism in his time that saw historical progress as the boundless perfectibility of humankind moving unerringly through a ‘homogenous, empty time.’ For Benjamin, however, progress as understood from a historical materialist perspective focuses on the struggles of the oppressed class es in their attempts to interrupt the historical continuum. This is hopefully reflected in the player’s repeated struggles for liberation, which ultimately culminate in Benjamin’s reflections on the Paul Klee painting Angelus Novus. ‘A Secret Heliotropism’ can be played here https://bit.ly/3aHcCdG.
