CAROL SHAW // GAME DESIGNER
“She is one of the first female game designers and programmers in the video game industry. She is best known for creating the Atari 2600 vertically scrolling shooter game River Raid (1982) for Activision. She worked for Atari, Inc. from 1978 to 1980, where she designed multiple games including 3-D Tic-Tac-Toe (1978) and Video Checkers (1980), both for the Atari VCS before it was renamed to the 2600. She left game development in 1984 and retired in 1990.”

In gloria degli eroici programmatori dell'Atari 2600 VCS!
128byte di ram per le variabili, lo stack e la memoria di schermo (una riga per volta, sincronizzato con il pennello video e senza neanche gli interrupt).
David Crane, Warren Robinett, Howard Scott Warshaw o Carol Shaw sono nomi che non diranno niente alla stragrande maggioranza delle persone, ma hanno fatto la storia dei videogiochi!

But, but -- River Raid isn't even one of the cartridges there. Adventure is plugged into the console!
Lies! All lies!

Once again thinking about how nightmarish the River bubble was...
It lasts for nine months. The ghosts stuck inside it can't quite keep track of time passing, but think it's been around eight weeks.
And of those perceived eight weeks, they don't fully work out what's going on until a 'week' or so before Harrow awakes in the bubble.
These people spent what they perceived as two months of moments of horrible realisation and forgetfulness as Harrow's unconscious mind tried to construct a simulacrum of Canaan House and "enforced certain rules to keep [her] cast on-script".
We know about the "wrong" and "confused parody" NPC versions of the living scions of Canaan House, but what did Harrow's storytelling mean for everyone else? Were they always in control? Did they ever find themselves in places or doing things they didn't remember deciding to do, or distinctly remembered doing before? Imagine having flashbacks of your own awful death while your companions look on incomprehending. Imagine being the only one in the room not claiming to recall that this all happened differently before. That conversation a 'week' before Harrow's arrival must have been so validating and so utterly devastating.
And they still all chose to stay.

"I am Tsahil from Gaza. I was displaced from northern Gaza to southern Gaza after my entire house was bombed. My husband was martyred when my house was bombed. I escaped death. I am my knight, Roseanne, from death, bombing, and genocide. My husband left me to face this war by myself. He left me to face this hell by myself. My heart is burned. I cry on my mobile phone. For a few days, my daughter Rozan began to be an orphan without a father, and now I live in a tent alone with curtains that do not protect me from anything. At any time, I will be a martyr. My daughter and I, Rozan, are displaced every day from an area. Donate to me to stay alive. O world, listen to my voice. Help me. Help me. I am now hungry. I, my daughter, and my fetus in my womb are without food and without water. Imagine that I shower once every month. My child, Roseanne, has developed a skin rash from lack of water. Help me, world. Until this time, my daughter and I, Roseanne, are suffering from hepatitis. I am afraid that I will lose my fetus from this disease. After 300 days of suffering from genocide, I thought of creating a fundraising fund to get out of this hell. My daughter and I, Roseanne, help me and donate to me, world. Listen to my voice. I appeal to you and address your consciences, oh world, save me, oh world, I am dying, oh world, hear the sounds of my cries, at any time, I and my daughter Rozan will die. Save me, save me."
