Gaming as performance: A herd of unemployed donkeys tries to get their jobs back. Spectators take turns at the controller to lead the herd through a post-industrial society, where asses are mainly valued for their hides. Cheeky, political, and best described as “Animal Farm” meets “Pokemon” meets “Final Fantasy”, “asses.masses” puts the control(ler) in its audience’s hands and asks them to discover the space between the work that defines us and the play that frees us.
