AR3 NA ( Quake III Machinima)

AR3NA is a visual study about Quake III Arena; its environments and its textures; and a deeper critical look at over twohundred maps that many of us seemed to have spent many hours in; to fight, frag, strafe, score and humiliate. The map as a being is the outside layer of an onion, serving as the aesthetic layer for all of the nailbiting and nervewrecking lastmoment capture the flag scores and all of the digital bloodshed that takes place within this vast universe where only the strongest can prevail. AR3NA is antimatter; rejecting skill and traditional means of gameplay. No powerups, weapons and, or players are found. It is you, your inner thoughts and the arena, inside a world that is empty, inside a universe that is limitless. The rest is up to you. Jordy Veenstra 2022 A Pixelated Point of View 2009 2022
