Comments on: Speaking at Columbia April 10th at 6PM https://www.jesperjuul.net/ludologist/2008/04/08/speaking-at-columbia-april-10th-at-6pm/ My name is Jesper Juul, and I am a Ludologist [researcher of the design, meaning, culture, and politics of games]. This is my blog on game research and other important things.

I perfectly understand your argument, but I think it is analytically useful to distinguish between the interface elements that are necessary for understanding what is happening in a game, and those that are more oriented towards sensory/visceral pleasure. They are related, of course, but you can still get something out of analyzing the differences between the two.

I think “Usability” supervenes on “Juiciness” in some limited capacity if we want a psychologically realistic model of learning to analyze Usability by (that is, one in which the ability to orient oneself depends on motivation, concentration, confidence etc.) , no?

I am not putting the slides up as they are, but send me a mail and I can give you a copy.

Do you have the slides for the talk available anywhere? I’m working on a thesis involving game design at the Interactive Telecommunications Program at NYU, and I’d like to reference some of the ideas you brought up.
Thanks!

Will post updates here.

There were two signs that say “casual gaming” that point to the room I was at.

Too bad I missed it. Are you going to do the same talk anytime soon?

Thanks.

Is there more than one?
