Bernie DeKoven, New Games author at Annenberg IML Friday 11/9/04, 10AM - 12:30PM
In preparation for the Cooperative Games Experiment on Friday November 19, Bernie DeKoven, author of the Well Played Game and Junkyard Sports will be speaking at the Annenberg IML this Friday. Bernie has graciously offered to give us some history on the New Games Movement and some advice on holding a New Games Tournament. Whether you plan on attending the Cooperative Games Experiment or not, this is a great opportunity to hear about the New Games Movement from one of its most articulate spokespeople.
Here are some links that Bernie sent along in preparation for the talk:

Wow! I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who came over to the Annenberg IML today to learn New Games from Bernie -- and special thanks to Bernie, of course. I was so inspired by him and the games he taught us. I couldn't stop thinking about it all day. Can't wait for next week's event!
