Speakers
Karel Millenaar of FourceLabs, a game development company, will kick off this evening. FourceLabs is specialized in pervasive games, and Karel is their gameplay expert. He will give us his view on how to stimulate the gamer's fantasy, and how play elements can be designed without being too high tech.
Louise Downe will be joining us from London. Louise works for Tate Modern, where they developed Tate Trumps, a digital card game. Put together your own collection of artworks, based on their ability to fight, their mood or relevance, and settle down with your friends for a game of trumps.
Emer Beamer is our third speaker of the evening. Emer is part of Butterfly Works, a studio that co-designs for a better world. They designed a serious game called Get H2O. The mobile game deals with issues like poverty, corruption, water scarcity, crime and community development.
