THATCamp Games 2013!


I loved it so much last year that I'm back for more: 19-21 April at Case Western Reserve University, THATCamp Games 2013!

Are you familiar with the "unconference" format? Basically, take your typical academic conference ... and toss it out the window. The unconference is about authentic and engaged collaboration among peers. No one reads a paper, or from some godawful Powerpoint; the workshops aren't even pre-set - we decide together what topics make sense, and then we discuss/hack/brainstorm/critique/play.

It's more or less the best format I've yet seen to invigorate a bunch of smart, creative colleagues to share ideas. Plus, it's a whole weekend devoted to games... :-)
