Minecraft is a simple game based on the idea of being able to harvest and place blocks. That's it. Until recent updates there were no real goals or reasons to play past the first in game night. The game looks like it got released with the original Doom but still has that simple charm that keeps people playing for hours.
A digital world is randomly generated before you and you are left with nothing and expected to survive the undead onslaught and constant griefing of exploding enemies when night rolls around. This world was perfect for two artists to get together and see what becomes of the interaction. We survive to build and alter the landscape for no real reason other than the fun of it. This is what has become of a week in the digital world.
