Form, Culture, and Video Game CriticismJerz’s Literacy Weblog)

I see that Nick Montfort has already posted a quick overview at GrandTextAuto, so I won’t try to cover everything and every talk equally — instead, I’ll focus on those talks about which I have the most to say (however naive some of my reaction may be). Most of the next couple of blog entries were at least drafted on my PDA during the train ride back — quite a time saver. But I have an unusually early meeting Monday morning, and thus won’t be able to blog until dawn (which is what I want to to do).
