DiGRA Conference 2011
After Leveling Up in the Netherlands (2003), Changing Views in Canada (2005), Situated Play in Japan (2007) and Breaking New Ground in England (2009) the 5th DiGRA Conference returns to the Netherlands for THINK DESIGN PLAY . Join us at our serious playground and participate in a meaningful dialogue between all players in the field of games and play. We seek to connect game research to the creative industries and society by fostering an integrated practice of research, design, engineering and entrepreneurship.
Green Bridge
Greenbridge is het West-Vlaamse wetenschapspark van de Universiteit Gent, gelegen in de achterhaven van Oostende. Het huisvest de gelijknamige Greenbridge incubator, opgericht door de Universiteit Gent , POM West-Vlaanderen , de Katholieke Hogeschool Brugge-Oostende en AG Haven Oostende (voorheen NV Plassendale). Later werden ook ADMB (2007) en Hogeschool West-Vlaanderen (2010) aandeelhouder van Greenbridge nv, de vennootschap belast met het beheer van zowel het wetenschapspark als het incubatie- en innovatiecentrum.This inter- and multi-disciplinary project aims to examine, explore and critically engage with the issues and implications created by the mass usage of computer- and videogames for human entertainment and focus on the impact of innovative videogame titles and interfaces for human communication and ludic culture. Related themes will also be identified for development and exploration. Out of our deliberations it is anticipated that a series of related cross context research projects will develop.

4th European Conference on Games Based Learning
As in previous years, the EASST010 conference combines a broad platform for contributions along with a particular focus. The 2010 conference turns its attention on the performativity of technoscientific practices and, more generally, on science and technology as situated practices rooted and grown in the connections of a sociomaterial ecology. The notions of “social construction” and “social shaping” of science and technology have been crucial for the development (and success) of science & technology studies. Increasingly, however, the “social” is seen as a question rather than as a distinctive explanatory category.

The aim of the 6th annual North American Game-On Conference ( GameOn'NA 2010 ) is to bring together academics, researchers and games people from North America in order to exchange ideas on higher-level concepts that contribute to the field of computer gaming research. The intent of the GameOn'NA 2010 event is to expose the research qualities of the efforts currently being studied and employed in the gaming community: projects in games research fields, students' game-related research work, commercial game development and design including tools, etc.. GameOn focuses broadly on the AI and Simulation concepts within computer games, but more specific themes that are encompassed within or related to these two categories are relevant as well. It also aims to enhance research contacts in the field of commercial gaming research between North American and researchers from other parts of the world.
