The communications team organized a one-day conference on Games, Time, and Nostalgia at Reed Hall on the 12th of May (Friday). The all-day event comprised of two sessions; the morning session which focused on the understanding of time in video games and the afternoon one which discussed nostalgia and video games. The keynote speakers for the event were Chris Hanson from Syracuse University (for the session on time) and Debra Ramsay from the University of Exeter (for the nostalgia session). The day long conference featured participants from countries like Hungary, Germany, the US and Japan. The ideas and conversations from the event are likely to translate into two edited volumes in Routledge’s brand new book series Games and Contemporary Culture.
