Talk:PAX East 2011

From IFWiki

This is the talk page for PAX East 2011. See How to edit IFWiki to find out about using talk pages, and editing the wiki generally.


Panels Ideas

These are the ones that didn't make it into our schedule. Maybe next year.

  • Discussion on puzzles as a way to tell story, not just a pacing device or way to control access
  • Grue Street IF writer's workshop. (Somewhat modified to be a public event. People bring in-progress IF work, we play them together and critique.)
  • Moving from inspiration to design -- A lot of IF authors get lost in the steps from 'I want to write IF!' to how to go about doing so, so go through various starting points ("I want to evoke this kind of mood", "I want to explore this theme", "I want to emulate this kind of non-IF story", "I want to play with this kind of mechanic") and discuss how you'd go from there to fleshing out your ideas to picking a design process. (Participants: Aaron Reed, ???)

Talk

This page seems to have been used for organizational/informational purposes leading up to the event, rather than being a traditional wiki page about the event. Not sure what should be done about that; keep this page and make a second one focused on summarizing the event? Alyshkalia (talk) 18:04, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
