HTTP were asked to be part of the London Games Festival, to introduce an 
alternative perspective of contemporary game culture from a grass roots 
level, in contrast to the traditional corporate elements that usually 
dominate these large and popular events. This is a major step forward 
for the London Games Festival group, and hopefully this will be the 
first of many 'Fringe' orientated opportunties, that serve in offering 
experimental and up and coming game artists/groups to have their work 
seen andc experienced by a diverse audience.

[giantJoystick] by Mary Flanagan was commissioned by the HTTP 
Gallery/Furtherfield.org and other independent video games selected by 
Corrado Morgana, are featured in the World Series of Video Games at the 
London Trocadero as part of the London Games Festival.
