Yes. We will figure out how to do it.

I understand that recording of these events has been previously
proposed. I would very much like to see this presentation, but will
be unable to attend in person. Is there any chance this could be
captured and posted somewhere?
Thanks!

SPEAKER: Terry Borst
TITLE: Serious Games, Simulations and Autonomous Actors in Evolving
Worlds
TIME: Wed May 14, 12:30p
Lunch will be available for purchase for $5
LOCATION: Santa Fe Complex Main Hall, 624 Agua Fria
ABSTRACT: An informal presentation of some recent leadership
training games in
real-time 3D environments -- with an eye towards advancing from the
highly
contained simulations of version 1.0 products to more expansive
future versions
which could benefit from the application of intelligent agents,
cognitive
architectures, and other adaptable and autonomous systems. Brief
demos and
playthroughs will lead to some of the processes pursued in
developing and
building these games currently, and the inevitable limitations of
these
processes. How much can we integrate narrative, pedagogy,
interactivity, and
world autonomy, and what kind of design and process tools might
further this
integration?
About Terry Borst: I'm a film and television writer who has also
been scripting
and collaborating on the design of entertainment videogames and
(more recently)
training and educational games for more than a decade. Just over a
year ago, I
co-authored Story and Simulations for Serious Games (published by
Focal Press),
a "handbook" for the design, representation, and production of
digitally
delivered training environments. We are at the precipice of radically
redefining the nature of story, narrative, and learned experience,
and I'm
interested in seeing how we can use new tools to further this leap
into the
unknown. Find out more at http://www.terryborst.com.
