Entertainment in the Interactive Age (USC, 2001)



While a Visiting Scholar at USC’s Annenberg Center for Communication, I produced Entertainment in the Interactive Age, a conference on games and narrative that was funded by the ESA (then the IDSA), who had funded a previous academic conference at MIT produced by Henry Jenkins. Many luminaries participated in this conference including Jenkins, Janet Murray, Raph Koster, Tim Schaefer and keynote speaker Will Wright. All the sessions were transcribed and posted online, although the web site has since been taken down due to reorganization at the Center. The web site and poster were designed by Jody Zellen.
