they remember when they had seven ten
eleven years
I invite you and invited you to close the
eyes to the people how much time they spent
game remember that friend
those friends with whom they spent everything
the day he even had more than his
own family or is brother of that
sister with whom he invented stories
they recreate objects imagined new worlds
to playing or as expected
ring the bell to go out to recess or
to go home
let the backpack take off the dust cover
and go back out on the street to play the
plaza to the neighborhood to the club
maybe today they met many times
kicking a pebble when they walked
on the sidewalk and preventing the fall
street or dodging the lines of the
tile or hitting a balloon and of
suddenly preventing it from falling and we
they still inadvertently were playing
or embocando a piece of paper in the bin of
trash
today he prepares the matí the
toast before it sounds setac
magic of the electric kettle
surely after these moments
they were looking around
to see if there was someone who had
discovered is that today they make us believe
to play is to waste time and we
We can not afford or use in
productive minutes of our life
playing until we are ashamed and
This way the game ever going
being more relegated to one side as
if it were something extraterrestrial
or worse still something only available in
the childhood
so I ask myself and I ask
how jairo aníbal child says
you who is an adult person and so
both sensible and mature reasonable with a
great experience and that knows many things
what you want to be when you are a child you should not
be the first time you hear this
phrase played like children we played
as girls
it will be that they have a special form of
to play
or it will be that we are the adults who
let’s unlearn how to play
since the first civilizations the
culture in its broadest sense
beliefs knowledge wars rights
everything we want to call art all
comes out of the game we can think of the
first men and women and their
rituals with music and dances in
civilizations like the aztec where in
your religious ceremonies game by
half ended by sacrificing people
as a gift from the gods or games
of mancala African games of the chore
daily of the sowing born of that
same place
that’s why I say that everyone comes out of the game
the game and it develops playing the
game is a starting point is founding
of our being to feel and think is to say
is founding of our subjectivity
if we play we meet again with another
and this way we can imagine worlds
we can enhance creativity a
lots of other things
as from the place where
let’s analyze and we want to see it but
mainly the game can be a
generator meeting spaces
our first and main link with the
world and that’s where we are building
collectively and we are strengthening what
group
we are strengthening the community
nowadays it is perhaps more difficult
find examples of this but I
I come crossing with grandparents and grandmothers who
they meet every week to
reconnect through the game and
keep your vitality inventing and
building musical instruments
paper or organizations that work with
teenagers and from the game they search
generate a life project and make them
protagonists foundations that thanks to the
game can recognize revalue and of
that way to get a community
can take care of the place where we live
a different way perhaps the game
simpler easier the one that is us
appears first is the individual
to lock us in our tablet the celu
the computer promoted clear is for a
tractor system of the encounter that by
fear and convenience seeks to isolate us and
that we take the game seriously
this old way to the other
we hear that we are more and more
connected ever closer
but clear through applications and
screens that the only thing they do is
keep them isolated and divided
this is why the game is not for nothing
innocent always
and I repeat there is always a message that
transmits disguised no more or less
conscious on the part of whoever invites us
to play or the game itself because it’s not
the same play between all to put together a
fireworks show or
that a round community holds the
longer amount of time an object with
feathers in the air like politics
Brazilian to have to be that more money
who have built more houses
destroy all those around me
mine or just one die decide all my
luck
this is why for us the game
it is extremely mobilizing and political and
if I say political because we do
special emphasis on experience
link in the links that you generated and
in how the genre
if we think about the way that I
I connect with the other
we see in that place something
absolutely political
if we play we find another one
we connect recreate and rethink the
we really reinvented it in a lot
in ways
there the link is understood as a
plot of emotions and power where
mainly what you learn is more
beyond the contents concepts or
ways that attitudes can appear
that manifest
how do we assume power as
we share and in what way
we approach others looking to generate this
freedom and build it is that it does more
of 18 months together with him and my
partner we have been traveling the country
and knowing transformation spaces
and meeting spaces
knowing and generating this kind of
spaces to be able to recover the
importance of the game with others and with
others because because we understand the game
as a political dialogue when playing as
a revolutionary action and reflection
because the game liberates us individually and
collectively above all
collectively because playing today is
our true path to
freedom
Thank you
me
