VIDEO GAME POSTER SESSION & WORKSHOP
MEMO invites both established scholars and undergraduate students to submit for participation in a medievalist video game poster session workshop (co-sponsored with Medieval Electronic Multimedia Organization). This workshop will be held in two ways. One way will be during an afternoon of the conference (in a room filled with the appropriate technology), where conference participants may wander from station-to-station of presented medievalist games. Each participant will have a station (a table) at which both the poster and the game will be made available to conference participants. The poster may be constructed of either paper poster board or be electronic (such as a PowerPoint presentation on a laptop). NOTE regarding the video game demonstrations at the conference: the game and the necessary equipment might have to be supplied by the presenter, but there will be some pieces available for general use. The other way that one might present would be fully online, in a password protected area, where electronic posters will be accessible to all conference participants for several weeks. Participants may be considered to present in both the physical and virtual environments. There are a limited number of stations available for the at-conference (physical) presentations.
Students should submit the Video Game Poster Session Student Application & Checklist for consideration by july 25, 2012.
