Explore the magic monuments of Black Rock City 2025.Katie Hazard, Director of Art, leads the selection, placement, and installation of artwork,  and she leads Burning Man's art grant selection committees. The ARTery is in the center of Black Rock City, slightly offset like the human heart. It's the epicenter of art support for nearly 400 art pieces, from towering sculptures to immersive environments.Before these art projects are sourced, crafted, and assembled with everything from hot glue to heavy equipment, they are first conceptualized by artists and engineers. Burning Man's Honoraria project grants 76 of these art projects about half of the funding they need, a total of $1.3 million.  Katie and Stuart explore how to foster accessibility and agency in artist groups. They describe some of the installations coming this summer, from interactive Sphinxes to a sphere of sinks, from a lost troll of sustainability to a fire-spinning pigeon. Some of the experiences include:an inflatable black cloud from Ukrainean Indigenous deer destined for ceremonial landan Afrofuturist pillar with an ancient modern secreta screaming booth that displays visual reactions to sounda woman with a merry-go-round crown, jump rope dreadlocks, and swing earringsListen in on this sonic journey of how Burner art is co-created and curated, and how BRC's surreal skyline is taking shape.Introducing 2025 BRC Honoraria Art (Burning Man Journal)Black Rock City Honoraria ProgramARTery (Art Services)The ARTery Volunteer TeamsKatie Hazard (Burning Man Journal)2025 Art Theme: Tomorrow TodayBurning Man Art Installation Archive LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

Many months ago now, I had the chance to go to the WNDR Museum in Boston. If you google that, it will come categorized as a “tourist attraction.” but it is a lot more than that, especially considering that I wouldn't classify myself as a “tourist” since I live outside of Boston. More specifically, and even importantly, WNDR is an interactive art museum with immersive art installations. And it was very interactive and immersive. There were a lot of great exhibits that invited you to engage and become surrounded by the creations that were provided there. Whether you are a tourist or not, it is definitely worth a visit.So it was a very pleasant surprise to find that my guest today actually had an installation at the WNDR Museum. It was this very cool outdoor-type of building where you could be with others and experience an audio and visual immersion of rain and lightning. One of the fun things about it was that you were there with strangers, basically arranged in a way that you were experiencing it together. I didn't know that when I first met Leigh Sachwitz to discuss being on the show. But it was one of the, dare I say, “wonderful” things I found out about Leigh and her work with her Berlin-based company flora&faunavisions (FFV). I got to learn about their award-winning work on projects like the Ring Cycle, a digital opera that creates an immersive experience of the work by Richard Wagner. I also learned about her work on the Utopian Garden, described as a story-based immersive, interactive show where participants can tour the world. She described their Flying Up Sparrows event in China, where Buddhist paintings were brought to life.Finally, she explains their work behind the Genius DaVinci Show that just opened up in Florida this past November. “This exhibition invites you to step into Renaissance Italy to explore Leonardo da Vinci's masterpieces and inventions up close.” And the great thing about this is the way that educational and entertainment come together to form what Hip Hop artist KRS-One described as “Educatinment.” Or, in Leigh's words, how do you create experiences that draw people into the moment and produce, empathy, emotional connection, and curiosity. We covered a lot of other ground, including the science of immersive experiences, how we can co-create our futures together using these kinds of experiences as a prompt, how we can inspire our imaginations to unlock the possibilities of ourselves, and the intersection of Detroit and Berlin as hubs of techno music.  Leigh Sachwitz - http://leighsachwitz.com/flora&faunavisions - https://www.florafaunavisions.de/

In this conversation, Tracy Rigdon, Jim Alabiso, and Jason Tetlak discuss Jason's transition from graphic design to large-scale mural painting. They also touch on topics such as the challenges of being a muralist, the use of augmented reality in art, and the trends in public art. Jason shares advice for aspiring muralists and talks about his experience with customizing sneakers. Being an artist in Jacksonville can be lonely, but there is a supportive community of artists. Murals have opened up the public art scene and made it more financially accessible. Collaboration is key, and there are many opportunities to collaborate with other artists. Artists need to be willing to hustle and work hard to succeed. The city needs more spaces for artists to come together and network. Jason encourages young artists to reach out to established artists for guidance and support. Takeaways Transitioning from one artistic medium to another can be inspired by unexpected experiences and opportunities. Being a muralist involves not only the creative process but also the business side, including finding funding and managing the administrative aspects. The use of augmented reality and interactive elements in murals can enhance the viewer's experience and engagement. Public art, particularly murals, is a growing trend in cities as it provides an affordable way to add artistic elements to the urban landscape. Aspiring muralists should take initiative, hustle, and be open to opportunities to gain experience and make their mark in the public art scene. Adding Easter eggs and hidden elements in artwork can create a sense of discovery and interaction for viewers.

In this episode, Mat is joined by Andrew Salzbrun, Managing Partner of AGAR, an experiential company that harnesses the power of human connection to drive culture and impact for brands, companies, and communities. Andrew brings decades of experience in experiential design and strategic vision, having worked with some of the largest names in the industry. As co-founder and executive creative director of BLINK, the nation's largest immersive art festival, Andrew understands the power of placemaking and creating meaningful, lasting connections.

In some families, the parents' DNA instructs so clearly the way their children think and work that it's impossible to deny the familial impact. Jason Bruges is the product of just this. His dad was a software and computer engineer, and his mother a trained artist. Both influenced where and how he came to be a multidisciplinary artist and designer. His eponymous Jason Bruges Studio is internationally renowned for creating interactive spaces and surfaces that sit between the world of architecture, site specific installation art and interaction design. Considered a pioneer of this hybrid in-between space, Jason has subsequently paved the way for a new genre of design studios, artists and designer-makers. After graduating from Oxford Brookes University in London, Jason borrowed £1,000 from his dad for an airline ticket and flew to Hong Kong to meet his grandfather at the airport. He'd only met him a handful of times before. Within weeks he had a job offer from the famed architect Norman Foster. This later led to his role at the groundbreaking brand experience agency, Imagination back in London, where his work on the Millenium Dome was considered an early example of interaction design. It was soon after, in 2002, that Jason created his own studio. Listen in as Vince and Jason discuss how being noticed by Tom Dixon helped him start his studio, the influence of Jean Nouvel's animated façades, and designing a hotel lobby in 2002 that changed colour based on the clothes of guests passing through. https://www.jasonbruges.com/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Let's reminisce about the video games we played growing up. As a 90s kid, I remember going to my cousin's house to play Mario Bros, Duck Hunt, and when we were older - Mortal Kombat. Gaming is a whole new world now for kids and parents alike. 190.6 million Americans ages 5-90 play video games and 61% report playing a video game at least one hour per week. 90% of children play video games and are introduced to edutainment between the ages of 2 - 18. Today we're speaking with a pioneer in the video game industry who's leading with intention to create protocols and set boundaries where they're necessary. Patricia E. Vance is the president of the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) and has been with the company for over 20 years. She oversees the teams who assign age and content ratings to video games and apps. She also serves as founding chairperson of the International Age Rating Coalition (IARC), a non-profit that operates a ground-breaking global rating and age classification system for all things digital - games and apps. Pat is a member of the Board of Directors for the Family Online Safety Institute and the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences. Pat spent 18 years at Disney/ABC, and served as Senior VP and GM of the ABC Internet Group where she led two video game joint ventures (Creative Wonders; OT Sports) and the management oversight of ABC.com, ABCNews.com, Oscar.com and Oprah.com.

fWotD Episode 2534: Fallout (video game) Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Friday, 12 April 2024 is Fallout (video game).Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game is a 1997 role-playing video game developed and published by Interplay Productions. In a mid-22nd century post-apocalyptic and retro-futuristic world, decades after a global nuclear war between the United States and China, Fallout's protagonist, the Vault Dweller, inhabits the underground nuclear shelter Vault 13. After customizing their character, the player must scour the surrounding wasteland for a computer chip that can fix the Vault's failed water supply system. They interact with other survivors, some of whom give them missions, and engage in turn-based combat where they battle until their action points are depleted.Tim Cain began working on Fallout in 1994. It began as a game engine based on Steve Jackson Games's tabletop role-playing game GURPS. Interplay dropped the license after Steve Jackson Games objected to Fallout's violence, and Cain and designer Christopher Taylor created a new character customization scheme, SPECIAL. Although Interplay initially gave the game little attention, the development ultimately cost $3 million and employed up to thirty people. Interplay considered Fallout the spiritual successor to its 1988 role-playing game Wasteland and drew artistic inspiration from 1950s literature and media emblematic of the Atomic Age as well as the films Mad Max and A Boy and His Dog. The quests were intentionally made morally ambiguous. After three and a half years of development, Fallout was released in North America in October 1997.Fallout received acclaim for its open-ended gameplay, character system, plot, and perceived original setting. It won "Role-Playing Game of the Year" from GameSpot and Computer Games Magazine, was nominated by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences at the Spotlight Awards, and is often listed among the greatest video games of all time. Fallout has been credited for renewing consumer interest in the role-playing video genre due to its setting, open-ended plot, and gameplay. Fallout was a commercial success, selling 600,000 copies worldwide. It spawned the Fallout series, the rights to which were purchased in 2007 by Bethesda Softworks.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:31 UTC on Friday, 12 April 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Fallout (video game) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Olivia Neural.

Making content that's truly original is something all content marketers want to do.But then why does so much B2B content look and feel the same? Today, we're giving you permission to express yourself in content like you might express yourself in art. In this episode, we're taking lessons from the Japanese collective of ultra-technologists known as teamLab. Together, with the help of our guest, SVP of Marketing at Sigma Computing Erik Bower, we're talking about defying convention, starting with the last mile, and more.About our guest, Erik BowerErik Bower is SVP of Marketing at Sigma. Prior to joining the company in November of 2023, Erik ran marketing at startups like Daily and Amplitude. He owned growth and digital demand at Palo Alto Networks from $125M to $2.9 billion in 8 years. He is an AI patent holder and has been building ML based machine marketing engines since before 2015.What B2B Companies Can Learn From teamLab:Question convention and then defy it. Don't just fall back on the way things are usually done. Think critically about your content and make something truly original. Erik says, “Think differently about things that are sitting right in front of you, and ask questions like, ‘Why is the convention to do things this way in our industry? It doesn't make any sense.' You always have to take things with that lens of questioning what actually works, and not work from some kind of template that you see other people do.” It's like how TeamLab operates outside of convention. They create immersive experiences that are truly original.Start with the last mile. Plan how you're going to promote your content before you make the content itself. Erik says, “Why wouldn't you start with the last mile? Like you're going to put all of this energy into creating this super expensive event or packaging up this asset,  and then the actual promotion of it is kind of like an afterthought that no one really pays attention to. Start with the last mile and work your way back. If you can't generate interest for this thing, then why are you producing it?”Quotes*”Especially as it pertains to B2B marketing and tech marketing,  I think a lot of what you see is very rote. It's checkbox marketing. But I think that teamLab shows you that original ideas are still possible. I think you have to strive for what a boss of mine called the thumb test, where you put your thumb over the logo. Can you still tell that it's your brand? But go beyond that. Where every experience is innovative, engaging, and not rote. It's a challenge to stay fresh like that, but you can definitely achieve it.”*”It takes that wild hair to just say, ‘I want to use this technology in a new way.' So I think if anything, I have a reputation for having a wild hair. Think differently about things that are sitting right in front of you, and ask questions like, ‘Why is the convention to do things this way in our industry? It doesn't make any sense.'”*”You always have to take things with that lens of questioning what actually works, and not work from some kind of template that you see other people do. Original ideas are still possible and important that you have them. You have to have a point of view.”*”In order to make email marketing and these other things perform well, they have to be more and more micro-targeted to the persona,  the vertical, the use case for line of business. And then it also has to take into account the things that they've already engaged with, where they are in the funnel. And so it becomes this big matrix that's sometimes referred to it as ‘Battleship.' And if you start to do that, you realize that you have a pretty insurmountable amount of content you have to generate. So you have to start to pick your battles and learn which ones are the highest value segments to focus your energy on content generation.”Time Stamps[0:55] Meet Erik Bower, SVP of Marketing at Sigma Computing[4:13] The Magic of teamLab: Blending Art, Technology, and Experience[7:08] Sigma Computing: Revolutionizing Business Intelligence in the Cloud[10:21] The Art of Experience: How teamLab Transforms Perception[12:07] The Philosophy Behind teamLab: Art, Technology, and Interaction[15:54] Revisiting teamLab: The Ever-Changing World of Interactive Art[20:56] Marketing Inspiration from teamLab: Pushing the Boundaries of B2B[27:09] The Challenge of B2B Website Design[28:14] Innovative Storytelling in Web Design[29:19] The Fast Fashion of B2B Websites: Embracing Simplicity[30:08] Decoding Sigma Computing's Marketing Strategy[30:30] Micro-Segmentation: The Future of Targeted Marketing[32:09] The Potential and Pitfalls of AI in Marketing[34:15] Winning the Last Mile: The Importance of Clear Messaging[42:17] Predictive Marketing and the Future of CRM[51:25] Sigma Computing's Upcoming InitiativesLinksCheck out teamLabConnect with Erik on LinkedInLearn more about Sigma ComputingAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Henk Rogers is on a mission. Several missions, actually, and each one is as bold and audacious as the next.  When we explore space, Henk wants to take nature with us. It's just one of the many goals that Henk has set out to accomplish, and there's plenty of reason to believe he's going to, based on his previous work within the space industry, his companies and non-profit organizations.  Listen for big ideas and clear missions presented in this insightful conversation with Henk Rogers. About Henk:  Henk Rogers is the President of the Tetris Company and a pioneer in the video game industry. In the 1980s, Rogers brought role-playing games to Japan and turned a little-known game called Tetris into an international phenomenon after intense negotiations with the Soviet Union and Nintendo. His efforts helped establish the Game Boy as a market leader and made Tetris one of the most popular games of all time. Rogers' story became folklore in the gaming industry and is the subject of the 2023 Apple TV+ film “Tetris.” Today, Rogers is the founder of 10 companies and non-profit organizations focused on renewable energy, space exploration, and ending the use of fossil fuels on Earth. A near-fatal heart attack in 2005 made Rogers identify his true missions in life and led to him founding the Blue Planet Foundation, a non-profit organization that has been instrumental in implementing renewable energy policies in Hawaii. Realizing this model needed to be exported to the rest of the world, Rogers founded the Blue Planet Alliance, an organization helping island communities disproportionately affected by climate change transition from being reliant on importing fossil fuels to using 100 percent renewable energy. Rogers is also the founder of Blue Planet Energy, a global leader in renewable energy storage systems, and the International Moonbase Alliance, an organization with the goal to build sustainable settlements on the Moon and Mars and establish Hawaii as a leader in the space industry. Today, Rogers continues to be an influential figure in both the gaming industry and the sustainable energy sector. He has received numerous awards for his contributions to both fields, including being inducted into the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences' Hall of Fame in 2008 and named CEO of the Year by Hawaii Business Magazine in 2015. He currently lives between his off-grid ranch in Hawaii and New York City and continues to be an active entrepreneur pursuing his passion for making a positive impact on the world.

Jon Goldman is not your typical artist; he is a master of intermedia art, a genre that fuses various forms of expression into one powerful narrative. His journey through the realm of art has been marked by an unwavering dedication to his vision and a resolute focus on his craft, regardless of the financial constraints that often come with pursuing one's passion.This conversation covers diverse topics ranging from the frontiers of interactive art and a lifelong fascination with intersection of Art, Design, Technology and Science. Goldman discusses the influential artists who mentored him at MIT's Center for Advanced VIsual Studies including Joe Davis known for pioneering Space Art and Bio-art, Otto Piene (Sky Art, ZERO), Aldo Tambellini (Video Art, Poetry and Experimental Theatre) and emphasizing that art is work.

Henk Rogers is the President of the Tetris Company and a pioneer in the video game industry. In the 1980s, Rogers brought role-playing games to Japan and turned a little-known game called Tetris into an international phenomenon after intense negotiations with the Soviet Union and Nintendo. His efforts helped establish the Game Boy as a market leader and made Tetris one of the most popular games of all time. Rogers' story became folklore in the gaming industry and is the subject of the 2023 Apple TV+ film “Tetris.” Today, Rogers is the founder of 10 companies and non-profit organizations focused on renewable energy, space exploration, and ending the use of fossil fuels on Earth. A near-fatal heart attack in 2005 made Rogers identify his true missions in life and led to him founding the Blue Planet Foundation, a non-profit organization that has been instrumental in implementing renewable energy policies in Hawaii. Realizing this model needed to be exported to the rest of the world, Rogers 2021 founded the Blue Planet Alliance, an organization helping island communities disproportionately affected by climate change transition from being reliant on importing fossil fuels to using 100 percent renewable energy. Rogers is also the founder of Blue Planet Energy, a global leader in renewable energy storage systems, and the International Moonbase Alliance, an organization with the goal to build sustainable settlements on the Moon and Mars and establish Hawaii as a leader in the space industry. Today, Rogers continues to be an influential figure in both the gaming industry and the sustainable energy sector. He has received numerous awards for his contributions to both fields, including being inducted into the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences' Hall of Fame in 2008 and named CEO of the Year by Hawaii Business Magazine in 2015. He currently lives between his off-grid ranch in Hawaii and New York City and continues to be an active entrepreneur pursuing his passion for making a positive impact on the world.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5351305/advertisement

Today, I'm joined by Brittany Delany, a dancer, choreographer, and co-director of the dance and social justice collective GROUND SERIES. We discuss the latest project from GROUND SERIES called “Free the Body,” an interactive art installation at The Coachella Valley Art Center that explores what it means to free the body within personal, cultural, social, and political settings. In our conversation, Brittany describes the inception of this project and how different elements of writing, sound, movement, and visual art were introduced. She shares what people can expect from the installation, including the various workshops the collective is hosting with local nonprofit organizations.  When Brittany found herself in a cycle of rage and frustration brought on by the pandemic, the murder of George Floyd, and the overturn of Roe v. Wade, she joined with collaborators to channel that energy into “Free the Body,” using the text Abolition. Feminism. Now as inspiration. Brittany unpacks the refuge that this project offers her and what she hopes people will take away from the experience. She also highlights ways that the collective is working to engage with local community organizations and foster restorative justice services within the Coachella Valley community.

LEGENDS: “The Betty White Episode” Not Betty White. You did this. I told you. You were warned. I don't heed those kinds of warnings! Ohh, Betty White died. Died of what?! Died of OLD— —she was tired— We're all tired! Let her rest. I got Betty? I told you this would happen. Oh, my heavens. No, I haven't. God, I need a favor. —- Betty, I need your charisma. (You've got plenty. ) I need yours. —- Did you know— —did I know—? Did you know—Someone once said Betty White wasn't “photogenic”. [exaggerated gasp] WHO SAID THAT? —they were stupid. They're so stupid. RIP. RIP Betty White. —- SHES A GOD. Okay, Betty White Fandom—stand up. [whole world stands up] Observed from galaxies away, the planet Earth is sighted falling slightly off its axis, by onlookers in the museum portion of an extraterrestrial research station. SUPACREE Woah, the world. Nobody *really notices—besides these aliens— except for Supacree. SUPACREE Hmm. ENTER: RAVE WORLD Here come the totems. Ahh, the totems. This isn't right. I love this one. That's so fun. A group of ravers passes another tribe, a Betty White memorial in clutch as their totem. Aww, Betty White RIP Betty White. RIP Betty White! What? What happened? Betty White Died —Betty White died. NO SHE DIDNT. I know broh. BROH. I know, broh. WHAT THE FUCK. RIP Betty White! —RIP Betty White! ...That's Fucked up... Yah, I know. My acid just kicked in. :'( Oh damn. That sucks dude. Mm...Betty White. [super sad face] Worst Trip Ever Betty, help me. (Just, Help Yourself…) A plate of cookies has appeared in The Void. Thanks. She takes a cookie and settles into the meadow which has appeared in the blank space beside her, creating a lush green atmosphere, a springy jungle surrounding an oasis, at the center of the meadow. Nobody is there; SUPACREE simply uses her spirit magic, whilst in a state of trance, to call upon The Good Spirits and The Angels for guidance, entering The Void to visualize and project in an open meditative state. As she sits, quite happily with cookie in hand, by the edge of the oasis; INT. WRITER'S ROOM. DAY Wait a second. What. She's calling on Betty White? Yeah, Betty White. She just died! Yeah, I know… It's too soon; She was 100! SHE'S A GOD. —at least with… Nobody can “play” Betty White! RIP Betty White. RIP Betty White. That's right—and it would be blasphemous to try to capture her essence casting some pathetic— imposter! Amen. —Amen. So this doesn't make sense! Yes it does. She's a ghost?! She's a spirit. What! Supacree summons spirits. (It's a gift.) [supacree summoning spirits..,completely by accident] ITS A CURSE. Ahem. Anyway. The Spirit In The Sky All passing celebrities and those granted fame and/or notoriety must serve a portion of their ‘passing time' as guards, advisors, or angels in the recently departed realms to those who loved them, such as a result or byproduct of the fame which was gifted. I guess that explains that. LEGENDS NEVER DIE. That about says it. Flashback: SupaCryptKeeper The Stairway To Heaven Just let me rest. No, get up. Five more minutes. What is time? Huh? I am… Mmmm ______ So. So. Who plays Betty White? … … … I got it. This is ridiculous. This is ridiculous. She'll never do it… They'll never let us. It's already approved. What! But, she won't– WANDA SYKES I'll take it! This is blasphemous.

As someone passionate about video games since she was little, it is no surprise that Tiffany Chin decided to pursue a career in the video game industry. She specializes in strategic planning and brand management for video games, anime, movies, and other types of entertainment. Currently, Tiffany works as the Global Brand Manager at PlayStation. She also serves as a mentor for the Academy of Interactive Arts, sits on the advisory board for South by Southwest, and is a Forbes 30 under 3 in the gaming industry.In this episode, Tiffany talks about growing up in the Bay area, her experiences in UCSD, and how she got into an industry dominated by men. She also shares her reasons for coming to Haas, one of which is learning how to approach some of the nuanced and complicated problems of bringing more equity into the gaming space. We also hear about her role in PlayStation as a brand manager.Finally, Tiffany also talks about Girls for Gaming, a program that helps empower and educate young women on the various roles within the gaming industry. Episode Quotes:On how she got into the video game industry, and other ways to get in“I feel like internship helped me get my foot in the door. At least expose me to a lot of the entertainment industry and a lot of contacts that helped me take those first steps into the industry. This was all before I really understood video games and what that industry entailed. Internship was a great way for me to get in.There's so many other ways for people to get into the industry these days that haven't really been as tapped. IDGA stands for International Game Developers Association and they have a great mentorship program. I'm one of the mentors of that. And it's been such an experience reaching out to not only college students but people who, in general, are interested in joining the industry. Another group that's really great too is AIAS, which is the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences. They have these scholarships that go out every year to help out not only game developers, but even people of color and women enter into this industry, which is quite hard to get in.”What her experience being in Haas has been like so far“Getting to Haas has been very enlightening in a lot of ways, not only from kind of the basics of business but getting so many more diverse perspectives of how to approach a problem. I think the fact that Haas focuses so much on DEI really drove me to come to Haas because a lot of what I see in my industry has driven me to want to learn how to approach some of these more nuanced and complicated problems of how do we bring more equity into the space, in a field that can often have some scarcity mentalities when we think about bringing other groups up or trying to bring more diverse people into our qualified groups.”On bringing her passion for DEI in founding Games For Girls“Games For Girls is largely focused on normalizing gaming for gender diversity. What that really means is kind of through three facets. One is through the professional route, being able to provide information to women in the industry on how to fight for equal pay or how to have some of those critical conversations that they need to have to bring a little bit more inclusion or sense of belonging into the workplace. The second thing is really highlighting the games that do diversity well. The third thing is around trying to normalize this within the community itself. I think that one's probably the hardest, but through some of the things that I've experienced and learned through different groups at Cal, to really facilitate this inclusive community of women and try to help bring people up and encourage gaming that is fun and lighthearted. It's not always about the performance aspects of video games, but really cultivating that community that lifts people up and has something as a focus to bring people together.”On becoming a face and an influencer in the gaming industry“It's been really incredible. I honestly would not have imagined being in this position five to ten years ago, but really I think it comes down to the network that I've built and the people who've really helped me along the way. I experienced having a great boss who encouraged me to take calculated risks, always advocated for me, or pushed for me to have exposure. Having allyship in that way of good management has really provided me with a lot of opportunities that could have taken me a lot longer to get where I am. In addition to that, some of the people that I've had the opportunity and been blessed to work with have been phenomenal in terms of pointing me in the right direction of who to talk to, to make the most impact.”Advice for people who are passionate about gaming and would like to get into the industry“Don't be discouraged. It is a tough industry to get into but definitely follow your passion. No matter what, the unique thing about video games is that we all come from very different backgrounds, but the one thing that unifies us is what we love, games.”Show Links: LinkedIn ProfileInternational Game Developers AssociationAcademy of Interactive Arts and SciencesGirls for GamingGirls For Gaming ScholarshipSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/onehaas/donations
