Mezzanine, Inpatient Interactive, 2022
Join us for a special presentation of Mezzanine, a psychotronic office adventure game, presented as part of First Look, an ongoing series of digital projects co-presented by Rhizome and New Museum. Celebrate Mezzanine’s release with a live playthrough with game creators Mitch Anzuoni and Peter Christian of Inpatient Interactive. Watch them accomplish mundane clerical tasks and explore richly detailed environments, all while uncovering a deep conspiracy about intelligence agency investments in the early ages of the internet!
