Game Design & the City @ Best Scene in TownKars Alfrink
This presentation was part of my contribution to the Best Scene in Town workshop on 14 April 2010 at the Waag Society. In it, I describe three scenarios for the development of games into the near future. I also briefly discuss some key concepts in the field of game design. The goal of this presentation was to inspire and to provoke, as well as provide some handholds for participants to use in their own subsequent work.
Slides plus notes for the talk I gave at Raum Schiff Erde in Hamburg on 21 February 2010. It's about how pervasive urban games can be used to increase people's awareness of and catalyze contributions to various kinds of systems (social, phsyical, technological).

These are the slides for my presentation at Reboot 10 on 27 June 2008 in Copenhagen, Denmark. In brief, it describes the theoretical basis for a type of game I foresee – one that allows people to make arguments in the form of dynamic models that use the city as their platform. The second part consists of sketches for a few of these so-called "urban procedural rhetorics" of my own design.
