Lee has made a new GameCity showreel. ’tis thus:

Simon Parkin has posted an extensive write-up / interview of the ‘all things must pass’ gig Jimmy and I did at the National Archives recently. Following the comment thread responses is illuminating, highlighting the emotional weight that this subject holds for (some) people and the nuance we need to express rather better than we are [...]

There’s a paucity of footage from 2006, so it was fun to see these which I’ve never seen before. Filmed in the Paul Smith cinema at the Broadway, where we staged a lot of the talks in year one. Alex and Mark came up and did MM’s first ever public appearance at our first ever [...]

Rob Fearon has just said some lovely things over on GameCity.org about our work which has reminded me why we are bothering to continue to turn up… “I like that if GameCity were a text adventure it wouldn’t be “You are in a dank, sweaty hall. To the left is a stinky man, to the [...]

Keef has just posted an interview with Ray MacGuire and Ian Livingstone up on the games blog which reminds me that I really must get those notes from the vision statement last year written up. So why aren’t we seeing games on the Culture Show? RM: I think that’s a discussion to be had with [...]

Had an amazing night at the start of the new GameCityNights shows a week ago. It turned out to be one of the better attended, strangest, longest and increasingly enjoyable events we’ve held. A huge amount of hand-wringing from the GameCity team was entered into the following Monday morning as we lapse into our inevitable [...]

We’re just about to fire off with the next season of our Monthly series of ‘videogame’ shows over at Antenna, GameCityNights. When we started them last year we were hoping to have an easy-to-organise, lightweight hang-out once a month to share some interesting stuff and provide a safe-haven for geeks at least once a month late night [...]
