Fame Game

Fame Game maps the networks of capital, influence, and attention that drive New York’s cultural economy. Fame Game creates public-facing “social network” profiles for the 100,000+ most visible players in the New York media based on their cultural footprint: events attended, influential connections, and creative references. Individuals and organizations captured by Fame Game can claim the “profile” of their cultural footprint and actively effect it, both online and off. The result is a multi-media “game” whereby players can increase the score of other people, parties, and projects by lending their fame, thereby increasing their own score/fame in the process. The goal is to influence culture and bring attention to things that deserve it, by playing in the media.
