Subject: [games_access] GDC 2009: One Proposal Moves to Phase Two

Dear All,

Unfortunately, the GDC advisory board did not 
share our enthusiasm about last year's 
Accessibility Arcade and it -- and 5 other 
proposals -- were rejected.

However, we did have one proposal -- 
Accessibility 101 -- accepted to move to "phase 
two" -- which does not mean we're in...we are 
just now invited to submit further information to 
them, including a draft of the slides for the 
session. I attached the requirements to the end 
of this email. This is a new process and I don't 
know what the likelihood of moving forward is but 
I'm assuming that because they get into specific 
requests ("color blindness") that there is a good 
chance that the session will move on if their 
directives are followed.

There is a further catch...there can be only one 
presenter. Yes, this is crazy given how this talk 
has been traditionally run. I will appeal this 
request.

I don't know if the IGDA gets ANY sessions this 
year but we now have to see if we can get 
"Arcade" saved through that process. I will keep 
you up to date on this as soon as I hear more.

The next question? Passes. At this point we have 
exactly one pass. I am hoping to increase this 
through multiple ways, including corporate 
sponsorship to purchase more. If we get an IGDA 
session this will give us more but I don't know 
how many more.

So...I need to know this -- who exactly is 
planning on attending GDC (and at this point you 
need to be almost 100% sure)? This will help me 
figure out how to get more of us in attendance. 
We will then, together, figure out who the passes 
will go to in what order.

Please email me offlist (hinn at uiuc.edu) if you 
were planning on participating at GDC 2009 so I 
can get an accurate headcount.

Frustrated...
Michelle

-----

I'm the content manager for the upcoming GDC 2009 
and I'm following up on the status of your 
submission, "Accessibility 101: Crash Course for 
Beginners." The GDC Advisory Board has 
conditionally accepted your proposal and are now 
requesting further information to make a final 
decision.

The advisors like the topic of your talk but 
would like to have one presenter deliver the 
lecture. Please decide who the presenter will be, 
I assume it will be you. We will also need you to 
prepare the full PPT presentation and cover color 
blindness in your speech. The slides will need to 
be as final as possible for us to gauge the value 
of the content being offered to the veteran 
developer in attendance. In addition, please 
prepare the following as part of your submission:

?         100-word description
?         50-word concise description for use on 
the show guide (a condensed version of the 
100-word description)
?         100-word max for the takeaway
?         100-word max for the intended audience

Your slides and outline will be due no later than 
Nov. 3 for phase III review. By mid-October, I'll 
provide you a unique link that will log you back 
in to the submission form so you may submit the 
requested information. The advisory board will 
then review the material and make a decision. 
I'll notify you on the status of your proposal in 
early December.

In the meantime, please begin working on your 
abstract and if you have any questions, feel free 
to contact me.

Best,
Evelyn

Hi Michelle,

That's bad news, although not the end of the world :)

I have a hard time understanding what criteria we failed on; now  
that's life, just wished they could indicate what.

However, regarding passes I do have some understanding about giving  
away passes; although GDC has been generous in the past it is also  
quite unique as at other conferences I have presented at (e.g CGAT,  
Singapore) I still had to pay for a full pass.

I hope the Arcade session stays in (including some passes), and we  
have Adobe and Redbull to follow up on

Kind regards
Thomas

Following up -- finally! Had a few hospital days!

Arcade is out for good. And we have an IGDA 
session but it's to be a "meet and greet" without 
structure or demos...fun!

I'm asking GDC to see if there are discount 
passes that they might make available for a few 
of us that we could make get Adobe or RedBull to 
pick up...

As for criteria we failed on...we will never 
know. I have the feeling they see accessibility 
now that they are a presentation company and not 
an industry company as a "one pass/one talk" is 
more than enough subject (if they only knew!). 
And last year we did EVERYTHING RIGHT! Our 
session was amazing. To not be able to do arcade 
again really hurts!

Subject: [games_access] Wheelchair Parkour
Message-ID: <E958C50E-A978-4D52-9919-6722765BB3CD@pininteractive.com>

Hey

once a year I run a course in 3D game dev at Stockholm University

of course I also introduce them to game accessibility :) but without  
forcing them to implement accessibility or related things.

but, this year a couple of students made an interesting concept game  
called Wheelchair Parkour - kind of a paradox which works out pretty  
well. For those not familiar with parkour it "is an activity with the  
aim of moving from one point to another as efficiently and quickly as  
possible, using principally the abilities of the human body" (Wikipedia)

Some interesting interaction design where the mouse movement and  
buttons simulate how to control a wheelchair. Then add the parkour  
concept above and you have a very interesting mix.

Try it out for yourselves, you find the download link on this page

Message-ID: <472169880@web.de>

Hello,

FYI:
At gamesforhealth.org they are looking for exergaming studies.

They are also interested in gamer "diaries", "experience"...
Sorry I did not understand it well.
It is something that ethnography people are interested in.

I think that also the view of disabled exergamer can be
very interesting ? When we are looking for the future, how
(exer)games should be, we should also think about disabled people.

Do you have, or do you know, where I can find some
"diaries" about disabled people using Wii or another kind of exergame ?

Regards,
Sandra

Great example of an education world/game (see teacher lesson plans -- 
quite in depth) that complies with US 508 in a way that others have 
not.

"It is our sincere hope that other businesses providing goods and  
services over the Internet will follow Target?s example and take  
affirmative steps to provide full access to their Web sites by blind  
consumers"
