Marcel Duchamp is widely recognized for his contribution to conceptual art, but his lifelong obsession was the game of chess, in which he achieved the rank of Master. Playing Duchamp is a computer program to play chess as if it were Marcel Duchamp. I worked on the graphic design and flash design in this project. Playing Duchamp invites all artists, skilled and unskilled at this classic game, to play against a Duchampian ghost.
