Episode 25 - The History of Everyday Games - a podcast by criticaldistance
from 2015-04-16T13:00
This month we are joined by game historian, University of Lancaster PhD candidate and editor-in-chirf of Silverstring Media's Critical Publishing arm, Zoya Street. Zoya has written two seminal books on games, Dreamcast Worlds and Delay, and is the founder of the wonderful free e-zine, Memory Insufficient. Here, we talk about his background in design history and what that lens means for video games as artifacts as well as what isn't said by the artifact itself, but rather is left to the community surrounding to interpret and define. Have a listen.
