Hi, all - 

Hope everyone had a happy new year!

Just wanted to let you know that I'll be moderating the "Playing Fair: Remix in the Gaming Community" panel this thursday (Jan 13) at 10:30-11:30am EST at World's Fair Use Day:

http://worldsfairuseday.org/schedule

It will be streamed live and recorded. Stream info will be at http://worldsfairuseday.org/

Please tune in if you can and contribute your thoughts!

Also...MagFest (Music and Gaming Festival) is the same weekend, and another of our group's members, Jeremy Pesner, will be on the "Gaming Intellectuals- Games and Education" panel at 10:30am on sat (Jan 15):

Very exciting Josephine and Jeremy!  Will definitely tune in and watch more of this, I'm curious about how gaming can mix with tools like XTRANORMAL and other simple UGC production methods.  Keep the good ideas coming.....

BTW as a note I joined two game projects in the last two months, one is a company that is focused on mobile/social games while the other game came out of a nonprofit that I work with in Southern California.  On the second project in particular if you know of anyone who wants to try their hand at various aspects of game design -- user interface fine-tuning, background art, advanced strategic level design or fonts feel free to get in contact with me directly.  This is an unfunded project at this point with potential funding in the next 2 months, all creatives will be credited and paid on a model similar to HitRecord's transparent collaboration process so we can find a way to bridge the nonprofit fundraising model with a more indie game development system.
