DICE 2010: “Design Outside the Box” Presentation [via waxy.org/links]
An entertaining talk on casual gaming, the crossover of games into reality, and achievements. Well worth a watch if you’re at all into games, game theory, or psychology.
“Look at Sony, or Microsoft, or Google, or anyone. They still don’t get it. They’re still out there talking about chips, or features, or whatever. Or now they’re all hot for design. But they think design means making pretty objects. It doesn’t. It means making a system of pieces that all work together seamlessly. It’s not about calling attention to the technology. It’s about making the technology invisible. That’s design.”Fake Steve Jobs
