Who We Are
We Throw Switches (Andrew Dyce & Craig Fairweather) are a wild production / curation / installation studio, specialising in videogames and interactive things.
Established in 2015 - with the intention of putting amazing games into social spaces that people actually wanted to be in - we've worked with organisations like the British Council, the V&A museum, Devolver Digital, Edinburgh International Film Festival, and New York University Game Centre to showcase work, create installations, and run parties from Sarajevo to San Francisco.
We're the creators of the independent/alt.arcade club night GamesAreForEveryone, some of the people behind alt.ctrl.party at GDC, and we've exhibited work everywhere from 13th century abbeys to EGX's Leftfield Collection.
If you want to talk to us about a project, a collaboration, or you just want to say hi, you can find us at hello@wethrowswitches.com
