Argentinian artist Yamil Burguener's new installation, 

yo++

, was recently on display at 

Game on! El arte en juego

. CCEC 2013. yo++ is a game without functional goals that simulates a conversation between the represented reality and the represented subject. The piece raises questions about identity and performance in virtual spaces. As Burguener writes in the text that accompanies the work, "How we are and how we look from the point of view of our own representation? Who is the avatar that represents us even in a social network?"LINK:
