For the fifth round of ''Art on the Marquee,'' Boston Cyberarts and the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority (MCCA) will be presenting six new works created by members of the Massachusetts video game industry on the 80-foot-tall multi-screen LED marquee outside the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center in South Boston. The artwork is reflective of gaming culture and will be played in conjunction with the return of the PAX East gaming convention. PAX East (March 22-24) is the East Coast's largest video gaming event. At the BCEC, 415 Summer St. Boston, MA. An opening will be held on March 14 from 6pm to 8pm.
The works are ''LARP'' by Chris Florio, ''Space Plants'' by Fish McGill, ''Tiger Training'' by William Russell Pensyl, ''Growing Phones'' by Joshua Pablo Rosenstock, ''1UP'' by Jeffu Warmouth, and ''Mists of Mortal Legends'' by a group of eight game designers from Turbine, Inc.
