My new business cards came in today. They foolishly let me fill out the order form without anyone checking before the cards were printed.
And, yes, I’m at a game lab even though I’m trying to work on play apart from games. I’ve got — shall we say — some leeway. Besides, if I can get away with these business cards, what else can I get away with, right?
I got to give my very first business card to Drew Davidson, director of Carnegie Mellon’s Entertainment Technology Center. My advisor brought him in as part of a speaking series. Drew gave a great overview of the ETC and spoke on creativity’s need for constraints: “The Best Playground (with an Electric Fence).” I’m fairly certain he gets all kinds of cool points from his students.
