WordPlay: A New Writerly Games Festival

The Hand Eye Society and the Toronto Public Library system is having a game festival about words!The organizers are looking for video games and boardgames plus some non-game material too if you have it.

Taking place Saturday, Nov. 16th from 12-5pm at the Toronto Reference Library, WordPlay will be a free one-day festival to celebrate the most interesting writerly games. It’ll feature:

  • A showcase of local and international videogames and boardgames with a word or strong writing component.
  • A panel with game/book cross-media types.
  • A bookclub-style in-person discussion with the Chicago-based creators of IGF winner Kentucky Route Zero.
  • An interactive fiction-making workshop.

Marshall Rosenberg on Nonviolent Communication

Rosenberg

I really enjoyed these talks by Marshall Rosenberg on his work in spreading nonviolent communication. He founded the Center for Nonviolent Communication.

This first video is a good introduction to his thinking and some of his life.

This video is targeted at educators and how to embody nonviolent communication.
