Canadian artist, filmmaker (Ghosts With Shit Jobs, Haphead, My Trip To Liberty City, among others), game designer (Everybody Dies, Unmanned), and writer (In Silico) Jim Munroe has a new project out: The Tour Guide: A Playful Fiction, which he developed as an artist-in-residence at the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO). Munroe describes it as "a simple video choose-your-own-adventure set in the AGO, featuring a rather unusual tour guide. [...] It’s a site specific piece and it’ll only be viewable at the AGO." Below is Munroe talking about his 2014 residency and his past projects, including the mighty arcade cabinets Torontrons:
