SpilBar 9000: Computer games as experience engines
Posted: 29 Oct 2012, 18:38
Nikolaj Hyldig, R&D Director at OpenStory Group, and Shareplay invite you to SpilBar in Aalborg.
Theme: Computergames as an experience generator
The purpose of all entertainment products is to engage and move the user on an emotional level. Computer games open new and powerful avenues for doing so, as they combine interactivity, visuals, audio and narrative in a way no other medium can. At this SpilBar we will explore some of these aesthetic dimensions as well as how the human mind transforms them into experiences.
When: Tuesday the 8th of November 4.30PM - 7.00PM
Where: Vivá La Revolution, Maren Turis Gade 6, 9000 Aalborg
SpilBar is free
