The games' latest patch even prevents police from appearing out of nowhere and  shooting at you(3), which significantly reduces stress and overall discomfort. This time, our session takes place in the Kabuki neighborhood(4), which is one  of the few inner-city areas that has direct sunlight, mostly unobscured by  skyscrapers, yet offers a lot of improvised verticality in its dense commercial  and residential quarters. Our proposition, again, is to not play the game as  intended, but to assume the role of a pedestrian: a silent observer, an unarmed  location scout, a flaneur with parkour skills, maybe a digital architecture  critic, potentially a historian of cyberfuturism, more of a cinematographer  than a YouTuber, and an escapist rather than a gamer. As previously, the Pirate  School(5) and the Institute for Urbanism at NU Berlin(6) will, upon completion  of your journey, award you a rare academic micro-credential of your own choice. (1) one of you, to be precise (2) previously: https://piratecinema.org/screenings/20210110 (3) patch notes: https://cyberpunk.net/en/news/37801/patch-1-2-list-of-changes (4) cyberpunk wiki entry: https://cyberpunk.fandom.com/wiki/Kabuki (5) https://ps.nu-berlin.de (6) https://u.nu-berlin.de --------------------------------------------------------------------------------          ()          >< pirate cinema berlin www.piratecinema.org <-- back
