An art critic and video game scholar, Matteo Lupetti analyzes the intersection of aesthetics, technology, and politics. He collaborates with Artribune, il Manifesto, and international outlets, focusing on digital art and interactive media. He has been part of the editorial team of Menelique magazine and the artistic direction of the Cretecon festival. In 2023 he published UDO. Guida ai videogiochi nell’Antropocene (Nuove Sido), an essay that rethinks video games as tools for understanding climate change and the emerging ecologies of the non-human. His research examines the video game as a critical language and as a space where contemporary culture redefines its relationship with the real.
