Kars speaking at several upcoming events

There’s a num­ber of upcom­ing events in the Nether­lands and abroad that I’ll be speak­ing at. Here’s a quick rundown.

• The first one is short notice: this week­end I will be in Helsin­ki for Virtueel Plat­for­m’s Dutch E‑culture Days at the World Design Cap­i­tal Pavil­ion. I will be talk­ing about PLAY Pilots, and specif­i­cal­ly the strate­gies for audi­ence engage­ment each live game employes.
• The next one is very close to home. I’ll do a so called Sum­mer Talk on per­va­sive games at the Dutch Game Gar­den. This is on Thurs­day, August 2.
• The week fol­low­ing that I will head to Berlin to work with Alper at our local stu­dio and also attend Play­pub­lik. The orga­niz­ers were kind enough to invite me to talk about Pig Chase. This will prob­a­bly hap­pen some­time on Sat­ur­day, August 11.
• And final­ly, on Fri­day, Sep­tem­ber 28, I will once again do a gen­er­al lec­ture on per­va­sive games, at /dev/haag on invi­ta­tion from Tijs Teul­ings.

Whew! That’s a lot of talk­ing. I promise we’ll con­tin­ue to make stuff in the mean­time. Some­where dur­ing sum­mer we should be able to share some new work with you. But in the mean­time, hope to catch you at one or more of these.
