Yes, all you physical-game-integrationists, its time to get your phones on and hit the streets… conflux festival 2009 is here! Unfortunately for us, we’re not in New York City, but the types of physical games seem like they could easily spread!

cool stuff abounds… like the Urban Disorientation game, or the Human Scale Chess game, or a Citywide Golf Course.

Three days only, check out the full schedule here!

Call for Siggraph 2009 Social Game

It looks like SIGGRAPH 2009 is calling for some social game competition… networking, of course, being the goal. But why not throw in some chase, or tag, or team battles… Im a big fan of robbers and soldiers tag. You could theme it for the middle management crowd. Just a thought. HEY THEY DO IMPORTANT WORK! its true. Or maybe Run Sheep Run hide and seek, which is totally fun: team based hide and seek. The whole proposal is here [siggraph.org]. Probably the coolest thing about SIGGRAPH 2009 is its being held in New Orleans. Props go out, its usually pretty interesting. Its cool how conferences are adding more and more games to their lineups. It can only end well. Just avoid playing Dodgeball. Adults heal slower than kids.

Looking for more sources

I have now about seven different sources of physical and social games, but if anyone knows of any more, please let me know. You can also add them here.
