A Few Photos from Princeton Video Game Conference

David Thomas sent me some pictures of me from the Princeton conference… he promises more photos (and, if he hasn’t had second thoughts), a long blog post soon.

Update: David’s Princeton video game conference notes are up now.

Here is the lineup for session 2. (Note the joysticks in the foreground.)

  • Dennis Jerz / You are standing at the beginning of a road: examining Will Crowther’s “Advent” (c.1976)
  • Christy Wampole / Electronic games as a constrained medium
  • Robert Bowen / Musical by-products of Atari 2600 games


Playing something (probably “Atari Adventure”) on the projection screen, courtesy the Atari 2600 brought by Nick Montfort.

  1. Dennis,
    My goodness! I know you said that you grew your hair out, but if not for the glasses and the suit, I thought maybe these pics were of Joel Pace. Speaking of Joel, he says “Hey!” after I told him about your conference.

  2. Thanks for passing along the greeting. The sad thing about the hair is that it’s not a deliberate stylistic choice — I simply haven’t had time to get it cut, and as long as my family members and students don’t run screaming from me, hey, it’s good enough.
