Tangible Play talk by Elise van den Hoven

On Thursday, 10 Nov 2011, the Exertion Games Lab proudly hosted a pizza-catered talk on Tangible Play by the brilliant Elise van den Hoven, which also marked the final day of her visit to the lab. We thank her for all the hard work she put in and all the insights she provided to each one of the projects in the lab. By having visiting researchers spending their sabbaticals in the lab, we ensure a holistic approach to research and international outlook on the current trends in the research community.

Playday @ NGV Studio’s Game/Play

On 29th September, 2011 the Exertion Games Lab participated in Playday which was co-hosted by Freeplay, Pop Up Playground and the Society of Coney as part of Game/Play in the National Gallery of Victoria Studio, Melbourne, Australia (#ngvstudio on Twitter).

It was a fantastic day filled with fun, physical, and playful games and activities such as Noodle Knights, Lemon Jousting, Checkpoint, Secret Agent Missions, Earpiece and many more! It was great to have people from the public join along in some of the games. In the end everyone had lots of fun and it was a great way to encourage physical participation and engagement. Thanks go out to all organisers, contributors, players and observers.
