Next DiGRA (Digital Games Research Association) conference has just been announced: it will happen in Guadalajara, Mexico! #DiGRA2023 #DiGRA2024
Very cool to be part of #DiGRA2023 last Tuesday and having the opportunity to present a piece of my work. Super happy by the welcome from the audience and the interest they manifested !
As soon as I get back in France, I'll post a thread that sums up my presentation. ✌️
The #DiGRA2023 conference is taking place in what was the US pavillon.
According to Wikipedia, the fair lasted 6 months and welcomed 42M visitors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seville_Expo_%2792
The conference is going great (day 3 out of 5) and I'll probably share a feedback at the end of the week.
Meanwhile, I would like to mention the rich historical significance of the venue for this #DiGRA2023 conference. We find ourselves situated on the grounds where a world fair took place in #Sevilla back in 1992, and we are surrounded by echoes of this remarkable event, which occurred 31 years ago. Certain structures have been repurposed by the university or businesses, while others have been left abandoned or demolished.
Here are the #CableCar and the #Monorail 😍 (both have disappeared today)
Since yesterday evening, the @chludens delegation in Sevilla at the DiGRA 2023 is complete!
From left to right: @SoBemel, Mela Kocher, @pyhurel, Larissa Wild, @yrochat, and @eugen_pfister
