As a follow-up to the February 2011 Colloquium -- and as a forerunner to the 2012 AG Colloquium titled "Social and Video Games" -- this Conversation explores the evolution of social games and the people who play them. Mensa member Gordon Walton, VP and Executive Producer at Playdom Austin, joins Dr. Mia Consalvo, Visiting Associate Professor of Comparative Studies at MIT, to discuss Dr. Consalvo’s research with regard to the development of social interaction and communities via online gaming.
