Presented by Jesse Schell.

ABSTRACT

In the 21st century, it turns out that the principles for designing videogames have become the principles for designing everything. In this talk, Jesse explains some of the surprising consequences of the new world of pleasure-based design.

About the Speaker:

Jesse is the CEO of Schell Games, the largest game studio in Pennsylvania. He also is a member of the faculty at the Carnegie Mellon University Entertainment Technology Center. Jesse has worked on a wide variety of innovative game and simulation projects, but he is best known for his award winning book The Art of Game Design: A Book of Lenses and for Beyond Facebook, a talk at the 2010 DICE Summit where he described a future where games and life become indistinguishable. He is a former chair of the International Game Developers Association, and in 2004 he was named one of the world's Top 100 Young Innovators by MIT Technology Review. Before starting his own company, Jesse was the Creative Director of the Walt Disney Imagineering Virtual Reality Studio, which helped to develop interactive theme park attractions as well as Toontown Online, the first massively multiplayer game for children. Before that, he worked as writer, director, performer, juggler, comedian, and circus artist for both Freihofer's Mime Circus and the Juggler's Guild.

    Please make it past the first 11 minutes. The first 11 minutes is only example of a way marketing will not work. The presentation after that is very well thought out and challenging.

    Great presentation.

    WAIT! Please watch past the 10 minute mark before upvoting akompsupport's comment. The doomsday scenario at the start is only there to show how ridiculous the gamification of everything would be. This was a great talk. After seeing so many people talk about how to gamify everyday experiences, it's good to see some common sense applied! Thank you.

    great talk! loved it..great contribution..a deeper understanding of "pleasure" is worth pursuing here..i take it you view it as satisfying the 3 aspects of self determination..it would be interesting to see if there were some sort of Plackett–Burman analysis or eq. that could correlate condition states to resultant degrees or intensity of motivation, indeed directed motivation, towards a particular aspect(s) of "pleasure" that would deepen the experience and and enhance "meaning"
