About One Cool Thing
One Cool Thing is a podcast speaking with people in and around videogames about One Cool Thing not from games which is really fascinating them at the moment. One of the founding principles of Die Gute Fabrik is interdisciplinarity - collaborating with people from other art forms to bring fresh ideas to video games. And that’s also what’s at the heart of this podcast series: what not from games is shaping how people think about making games right now?
About This Episode
On this episode we meet Goldie Bartlett who chats to Hannah Nicklin about wimmelbilder.
Goldie Bartlett is an illustrator and artist based out of Melbourne Australia. She works in paint, pencil, digital media and videogames. Recent games which feature her work include Florence and Movement Study 1, and most recently launched Wayward Strand as part of the core team of Ghost Pattern Games. Wayward Strand is described on their website as a heartfelt interactive story, told in a curious way.
She’s also in the art and digital art field, contributing to graphic novels, and the internationally exhibited Now Play This commission THE GRANNIES which is a documentary short film about Goldie and their pals The Grannies, pushing the boundaries of Red Dead Online.
