Learning to Make Your Own Reality - IGDA Education Keynote 2009

Alice Taylor from the Wonderfland is celebrating Ada Lovelace day with a great post about ARG and gaming pioneer Jane McGonigal, including video and slides from Jane's talk yesterday at the Game Developers' Conference in San Francisco, which is absolutely the talk of the event.

My Ada Lovelace day post: Jane McGonigal

Previously:

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

I too was unable to hear the audio, was that as planned?

Super-inspiring, even if you’re not a game designer.

Getting a job will help one to make his/her own reality…perhaps could aid in growing up as well.

I seem to be missing something. Is there video or even audio associated with that slideshow? I just see slides. I’d love to hear the talk that accompanied it.
