I presented early this morning (7am!) at TAG Austin. Nice crowd, very interested, very receptive. I spoke for about 45 minutes, slides presented below.
The presentation was broadly about Mockingbird, but Mockingbird-specific talk really just occupied the first and last five minutes, everything in between was a discussion of what games are, what their history and place is in human culture, what their potential is as a form of expression, and what elements of that expression are critical in order to make “making” as accessible as possible.
As with previous presentations, the slides by themselves may not be that useful, but for those that heard the presentation the slides should serve as useful reminders.
