Enjoyed another visit to Leiden for TIPC4 (@valuefnd.bsky.social) with great feedback on the projects and some valuable conversations about digital preservation, representation, and acculturation. Leaving thoroughly inspired!

Until next time... 👋🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I've created a basic prototype based on memory benches and their embodied human stories.

Benches are symbols of remembrance, but often they can be desecrated or fall into disrepair.

I'm hoping to create a contemplative experience to highlight discussions of humanity, preservation, and dignity.

#DIGRA25 has been inspiring, sweltering (☀️🥵!) and incredibly rewarding. Looking forward to following up with many for exciting research activities.

Safe travels to all and hope to see you at the next one!

It's been a difficult-to-swallow week but a family trip and watching my daughter's amazement at the animals from her books is a lovely panacea. 🙏

Brilliant afternoon at @dcadundee.bsky.social Drop In and Play with a diverse mix of games emerging from Scotland's industry.

Proud of our MProf students who showcased their games from last term's Applied Games and Research Practice module!

Pictured: my daughter enjoying her first video game!
