In the online edition of MoMA’s ArtSpeaks program, we invite staff members, artists, and special guests to share personal impressions of an artwork in the galleries. Here, bestselling author and Girls Who Code founder Reshma Saujani talks about the realities of building a virtual world in SimCity 2000, and how video games can be much more than entertainment.
