Last night’s plenary session seemed to set the benchmark for talking about the state of the videogame industry more broadly, but also in the state of GA. In part, that is what has made the conference so far a particularly interesting one it demonstrates the kinds of intersections that occur between local activity and creative industries more broadly. But back to the Friday night plenary…
Andrea and I will be heading down to Atlanta tomorrow for SEIGE at the Marrietta Hyatt. It should be a great introduction for me (and those students of mine in NMIX 4200 who are planning to head down for the event) to the GA game development scene. What I’m hoping to find is a new fieldsite or three willing to accomodate me over the next few months (years). I’ll of course be hard pressed to find any studio as accomodating as Vicarious Visions was during my dissertation research, but I’ll try.
