Discussion Topics will include; mental health & video games; video games addiction & “gaming disorder”; mental distress; how to maintain a healthy mind; solitude in contemporary world, relationships, social lives; self-help skills to maintain good mental health and wellbeing Alain is an artist and filmmaker who questions the links between individuals with their virtual doubles or avatars.
