Algorithmic Matter

Can serious games help us understand the algorithms we encounter everyday?

Every day we let algorithms take decisions on our behalf. Back in 2015, I wanted to explain how some of these algorithms work. So I created Alma, short for Algorithmic matter. Alma is a kit of 3 serious games designed to help us understand Facebook Newsfeed, Google PageRank and Siri's algorithms. Alma lets us play with and as the algorithms using physical tokens and digital interfaces. Alma is about learning by playing.
