He designed a singular game that needed to be discovered using a MAGNIFYING GLASS and a typefont to go with the game as well.</p> <h6>Bigger #1</h6> <p>Using the magnifying glass, users could omit and create new shapes with the basis of Topcuoglu's font, which incorporated both lower and upper case in one letter. Using a video camera to frame the work on display, the user was invited to play with the work, discovering breaks and connections throughout the images.</p> <p>A different version of Topcuoglu's magnifying glass game was present during GAME TIME, an evening on 11 with design students from the Rietveld Academy demonstrating games they had developed.</p> <p>At the Bigger opening on Saturday May 27th, RENE SG gave a speedpunk concert.</p> <p><span class="inline-image-wrapper ui_animateFigureCaption"><a href="http://www.mediamatic.net/11675/en/bigger-tunc-topcuoglu-outdoor"> <img src="http://fast.mediamatic.nl/f/sjnh/image/492/11675-400-226.jpg" height="226" width="400" alt="" title="Bigger, Tunc Topcuoglu, outdoor" playable="1"/> </a><span class="caption-inline"><span class="title"><a title="Click to get a larger image - Bigger, Tunc Topcuoglu, outdoor - Mediamatic.net" href="/11675/en/bigger-tunc-topcuoglu-outdoor">Bigger, Tunc Topcuoglu, outdoor</a></span></span></span></p> <p>Programme for the rest of the month:<br/> 11.06 Stefan Tiron, Bogdan Marcu en Linda Barkasz (Rumania)<br/> 17.06 Rafaël Rozendaal (Netherlands)<br/> 24.06 Bogomir Doringer (Serbia)<br/> 30.06 Irina Birger en Katja Sokolova</p> Bigger 1 Tunc Topcuoglu <p>Mediamatic liet gedurende een maand zes jonge kunstenaars / curatoren spelen in haar ruimte.
