Week 9 – 11/6/13: “Controlling Originality” & Andy Moore
It’s all here. Sorry for system mandated video cut off at the end. And for the fact that the way we connected Andy’s slides into the system through a secondary didn’t allow the video system to pick them up so you will have to download them and advance manually. jon
Week 8 – 10/30/13: “From Wheelbarrows to Holodecks” & Jennifer Kelly
The mysterious “missing first 20 seconds of audio” bug has made an unscheduled reappearance right at the front end. Apologies to Jennifer for a slightly over aggressive edit at the end. Since Jennifer was remote and our system only picked up her slides in class, you will have to download her slides and advance them […]
Week 7 – 10/23/13: “What’s it all about…Beta?” & Anoop Desai
The video of Anoop’s great guest appearance is not included, but his slides (& mine) are available below. jon
Week 6 – 10/16/13: “Ten Cases – Ten Clauses – Ten Contexts” & Roch Ripley Part 2
Here are the slides and video of the class. Note especially Roch Ripley’s trenchant and useful critique of the first part of the course as embodied in my previous slides. That said – “Switzerland”…really? jon
Week 5 – 10/9/13: “Creators, Consumers & Users” & Ian Verchere
The focus of Week 5 was an amazing guest stint from Ian Verchere “Taking Games Literally: Games As Semiotic Domain”. Unfortunately Ian’s slides don’t show up in the Mediasite versions (probably because they were so video heavy). However a lite version of those slides can be found below the videos. jon
Week 4 – 10/2/13: “Right to CreaTE or Rights of Creation” & Prof. Greg Lastowka
Week 4 features a wonderful talk from Greg Lastowka of Rutgers Law. Though we could see Greg’s slides in class the video-capture system cannot simultaneously access slides fed remotely and a remote video feed. So you are stuck with a second screen of me during Greg’s talk which most fortunately can simply be turned off […]
Week 3 – 9/25/13: “John Milton Plays GPL” & Steve Rechtshaffner
Here is Week 3. Came out pretty well other then my asking for a Kleenex to clean my glasses & the surreal picture within picture within picture effect at the beginning of Steve’s presentation and the evidence of my scrambling to play TV producer and fix that effect. To download the slides just scroll over […]
Week 2 – 9/11/13: “If Picasso had..” & Roch Ripley Part 1
Here is Week 2. Major points (but no marks) for finding Roch. Am certain this was simply an homage to the “Easter Egg” meme that prevails in video games. Thankfully Roch has an awesome voice, so theatre of mind works just fine 😉 Related to this is the fact that in experimenting with the video, […]
Week 1 – 9/4/13: “Introduction”
Thanks to all for a fun first class. Sorry for my scratchy voice. Was not auditioning for a post midnight FM radio gig. Working on getting better. The video and slide links below are: 1.Click-through to full size MediaSite player (video & slides); 2. Embedded MediaSite player (video & slides) but not expandable to full […]
Coming Soon
