First, the bad news: I won’t be able to make it to Interaction 08<\/a>. Which sucks, because it looks like it’s going to be a wonderful conference with a smart crowd attending. I would have loved to meet up with friends there. And of course I was looking forward to sharing my ideas on playful products.<\/p>\n

There’s plenty of other events in the pipeline for me though, both big and small. Here’s a rundown:<\/p>\n

Next week on Tuesday 16 January I’ll be flying to Oslo on invitation of Are Halland<\/a> at Netlife Research<\/a>. I’ll do a short presentation at the UXnet meetup<\/a>, focused on the application of game design to UX<\/abbr> for the web.<\/p>\n

Shortly after that, I’ll be participating in BarCampCopenhagen<\/a>. I’ll probably do a session about my thoughts in mobile social gaming. Other than that I’m looking forward to just hanging out with the Danish geek crowd.<\/p>\n

In February it’s time to cross the Atlantic to San Francisco for the Game Developers Conference<\/a>. I’m speaking at GDC Mobile<\/a> about designing casual gaming experiences for Generation C<\/a>. I’m going to make good use of my complimentary all access pass. You’ll most likely find me playing weird stuff at the Independent Games Festival<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One final engagement taking place in June that I can already announce is From Business To Buttons<\/a>, organised by my friends at InUse<\/a>. Here I’ll get a chance to talk about the stuff that I had planned for Interaction 08: play, storytelling and complex systems. Looking forward to it.<\/p>\n

If you’re reading this, and happen to be attending any of these events. Do drop by and say hi. I’d love to meet and chat!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
