Hide&Seek hosts an evening of discussion about making pervasive games. This is a chance for makers and potential makers of pervasive games to talk about what works, what doesn't, how to get people playing, how to stop them from being run over, where to buy cheap ribbon or sports bibs, and anything else related to making and running pervasive games.
There will be a couple of hours of 15-minute talks about different practical aspects of making pervasive games, speakers including:
Alex Fleetwood talking about the Playmakers project
Gethan Dick talking about how to make playful collaborative artwork good
Holly Gramazio talking about exciting things that can go wrong with your pervasive game
James Wallis talking about storytelling and pervasive games
Manar Hussain talking about moderating games
Simon Katan talking about designing for the game versus designing for art
After the talks there'll be time for everyone to chat more generally about pervasive games, hunt out the speakers and ask them questions, and meet other people who make or are interested in making pervasive games.
The event will take place in the Hub, a few minutes' walk from King's Cross.
Argh, I'll miss this by nine days. Will the talks be recorded? Since there doesn't seem to be a Book On Making Games, perhaps it would be good to start accumulating resources like this..
