"Some of the world’s leading authorities on games bring their extraordinary skills to the Smithsonian in an exploration of the art and science of modern electronic and non-electronic game design, developments in the game industry, and the wealth of content now available.

In addition to their discussions of the creative process, marketing, and the cultural influences of games, they offer a view of a game in progress.

Whether you are a gamer, a designer, or just want to know more about the fascinating worlds they inhabit, this afternoon seminar is for you.

Doug Church, chief technology director, Eidos North America, is the game designer of Ultima Underworld (I & II), System Shock, and Thief: The Dark Project, three games in the top 20 of PC Gamers’ recent list.

Richard Garfield, a mathematician by training, is the designer of the alpha version of Magic: The Gathering card game (Wizards).

Shigeru Miyamoto, senior managing director, Entertainment Analysis and Development Division, Nintendo Co., Ltd., Kyoto, Japan, is the inventor of Donkey Kong."
