Re: [Air-L] Visions of the Gamepocalypse (Jesse Schell SALT talk)

Schell's first talk caused a lot of noise around the game studies folks but I never really saw any of them follow up on some of the things he said (go here if you haven't seen: http://fury.com/2010/02/jesse-shells-mindblowing-talk-on-the-future-of-games... ). In particular, I was curious what people felt about the ideas that eventually formed this talk. I hope to see some more work on these ideas as they seem to be pretty interesting concerns about how the world will develop. One thing from the first post that struck me is: " We may well be passing our avatars on to our children and grandchildren." Does anyone know of any work that approaches this idea? Thanks, Nick
