Games for Change conference
-posted by Chris
I attended the Games For Change Conference in New York City on Tuesday, June 3rd. I spoke in the first panel discussion on ‘ancient games for change’, along with Jim Gasperini, author of Hidden Agenda. My primary purpose was to talk about Balance of Power (1984) and Balance of the Planet (1990). However, I snuck in a little about Storytron, and at the Expo that evening I showed off Storytron.
Response was good. I spent most of my time sitting in the hall outside the session, conversing with people about Storytron. Some of the people I chatted with were with companies that might have an interest in using Storytron technology; others were individuals who have long dreamed of building an interactive product with true interpersonal elements. I fear that most underestimate the magnitude of the task they have set themselves. Nevertheless, I think that we’ll get some people seriously looking at Storytron and perhaps even get a few authors. Thus, the conference was, from my point of view, a success.
Join the discussion!
