I hope to have time to write a short piece on how over the last twenty years #virtualheritage and #seriousgames (for history and heritage) has had trouble focusing on accummulating and advancing insights into improving #education #3Dscholarship and #dissemmination in this area.
Second book to announce today, a second and much revised version of my first book, slightly renamed to Playing with the Past: Into the Future, Springer, 2023, in their HCI series. https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-031-10932-4 #seriousgames #virtualheritage #digitalheritage #culturalpresence
Playing with the Past: Into the Future

The second edition of this monograph reviews recent games and learning environments, with provocative dialogue of new and emerging promises and challenges.

Welcome to my #introduction post! I mostly research #virtualheritage (#digitalheritage via XR, games) and serious games but also some #DigitalHumanities, teach #ArchitecturalHistory (and maybe #ArchitecturalTheory). In Adelaide South Australia, @ #UnISA, have taught in UK and NZ and worked in Denmark and Japan. Currently helping colleagues form projects for https://megacrc.com.au/ application. Looking to combine my love of game design workshops, coffee, books, and walking the dog.
