Paper Sessions - An Example

Now we have keynotes (I will post one of them later today) at FuturePlay each year and then there are the paper sessions. I recorded some guy presenting a paper on experimental psychology and game design last year in London at FuturePlay 2006.

This talk should give you a good feel for the paper sessions.

If you check this dude's blog you can get the paper and the powerpoint slides....

T6 Flashbacks- 1

If this is your first time at FuturePlay you might want to know a bit about some of the past conferences.

Well, I have a little (13 000 subscriber, pats self on back) podcast called thunderbird six that covers FuturePlay each year (and other cool stuff, like interviewing other podcasters, people at Algoma University, bands and people that I frankly find interesting like Cory Doctorow or astronomer Seth Shostak).

I thought it might be cool to start a series of T6 flashbacks, basically re post old interviews and content from the conference. In our second episode I interviewed Jeb Havens back in 05 before FuturePlay 2005 in Lansing Michigan.

Jeb is a Lead Designer for 1st Playable Productions near Albany, NY. and was Lead Designer on Marvel Trading Card Game for the DS, and is now Lead Designer on Disney Princess: Magical Jewels DS. Before that, he was a designer on Playboy: The Mansion and was Lead Designer on the Private Party expansion pack for that game.

Enjoy.
