Sherbrooke

I had the pleasure of going out to Sherbrooke University yesterday to give a presentation there as part of their Série ExperTIse hiver 2006. Due to relatively short notice and the fact that I was preparing and practicing my GDC 2006 presentation in the same window, I gave the presentation that I had previously done for the Montreal Game Summit called 'Next - The Game Designers' Generation', which is linked to the right.

I think these kinds of industry-to-university presentations are increasingly important given the current explosive growth in the industry. Any opprotunity to open dialogue with those who will go on - not only to make games - but to study them as cultural artifacts - is invaluable.

Merci a professeur Denis Bélisle et son equip pour l'invitation, et merci egalement a chacun qui a ete la pour tolerer mon anglais. J'espere que si je suis invitee encore, je pourrai parler en francais.

Truly the funniest thing you will ever write.

Your journey to the dark side is now complete.

Next up: Mortgage, marriage, kids, PTA meetings, Rotary, swim meets, gymnastics practices, midget hockey, golf vacations, soccer dad, three or four heart attacks and an early death at age 47.

GLOURIOUS!
