"Lost in Thought" is a collection of visual artists, engaged in an on-going process of dismantling common notions of the "video game".

"....Version One" is a process-driven appach to generate annimated works as part of a larger work, "Series of Malfunctions" It is intuitive and fragmentary, created by writer-dialogue deluxe Artist Murray Toews and video artist Don Rice. They slowly layer a shared subjective and internal dialogue as they pass through the fictional recesses of a dying mind. Using the mechanism and facade of the video game, now transformed and mutated, becomes an exploration vehicle of one's own mortality and poses fundamental questions of existence not uttered in the realm of fast paced, attention distorting video-game playing.
By the continued playing this interactive "art-game" will make connections in the gallery-users mind to create their own impressions and ideas, thus creating their own subconscious narratives. Gallery-Users will be encouraged to write down their experiences that will act as a guide to edit the interactive work into a complete animation.
