[IGDA-NYC-announce] Upcoming Game Event: THE LUDIC CENTURY

[Wade Tinney]

Some of you may be interested in this upcoming event:

THE LUDIC CENTURY: In the future, everyone will be a game designer
 
In this wide-ranging and far-reaching talk, Eric will build on his fifteen
years of experience as a game designer and game industry gadfly to talk
about the wider relevance of games to the culture at large. What are games?
What is game design? And in what ways is our culture changing to become more
game-centric? The importance of thinking in terms of complex systems,
playful technologies, and the world as a designed construction are bringing
about new ways of making meaning, and demanding new kinds of literacies for
understanding these meanings. In a talk that will include playing games with
the audience and offering a sneak peek at his next major unreleased game
title, Eric will provide a provocative glimpse into a very playful future
