I was out of the game for a day this week due to a cold. Back in the saddle now, off to Amsterdam for more work at Layar<\/a>. I’m going to pick up where we left off last week when the workshop with BERG<\/a> finished.<\/p>\n

It’s less than two weeks to the next This happened \u2013 Utrecht<\/a>. On monday we opened the registration and even though we had twice as many spots than last time, we ‘sold out’ in half the time. One minute. Crazy. I met up with Alexander<\/a> and Ianus<\/a> on monday evening to go over the last things that need to be done. We had a look at our new venue too, the HKU Academy Theatre<\/a>, which I think is real nice. <\/p>\n

On tuesday I went over to Codarts<\/a> to give a lecture on games to music students (producers, composers and songwriters, mostly). I was invited by Dani\u00ebl Hamburger<\/a>, whom I collaborated with on the Monster game opera<\/a>. I wanted to provide the students with starting points for collaboration with game designers. So I decided to focus mostly on the notion of player experience, and how game designers contribute to this, and how music and sound can. It went OK. I started by chatting with them about the games they play, so that I could use those as examples in the rest of my talk. That’s a trick that works well, I’ll be sure to use it again. <\/p>\n

There’s some more speaking on the horizon. On monday I booked my train to Hamburg, for a talk at RaumschiffEr.de<\/a>; a sort of mini-Reboot<\/a> taking place on february 21. Read a bit more on that at the Hubbub blog<\/a>. Perhaps I’ll see you there?<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
