DiGRA NY (pending)

At the G4C festival last week I realized how many people we have here in NYC that do one thing or another with games. So, just now I sent off a proposal to start up DiGRA NY.

At this point everything remains nebulous, but the site is live. People wasted no time when I asked them to join in. Here’s a list of confirmed names:

David Cole, DFC Intelligence

Dennis Crowley, New York University

Mary Flanagan, Hunter College/TiltFactor Lab 


Lewis Kofsky, Curious Pictures


Liel Liebovitz, Columbia University/Thunder 11


Aram Sinnreich, New York University/Radar Research 


Martin Zagorsek, Parsons School for Design/Games & Software at NPD 


Eric Zimmerman, NYU/GameLab 

As of right now, the first main event is tentatively scheduled in the fall of ’08 (topic TBA). Of course this all depends on whether or not Frans and Tanya approve of my proposal.

Technics are handled by the always-working brain behind Super Interactive. Patiently we await a green light from Finland. 

(stay tuned)
