🎮 #Games can advance #science & vice versa. Today's talk at the Museum für Gestaltung Zürich showed the potential of collaborations between scientists and game developers. Attila Szantner takes #CitizenScience to a whole new level by enabling the collaboration between researchers and the game industry - thus reaching millions of people. Anna Lisa Martin-Niedecken showed how impactful #exergames (exercise + games) can be for rehabilitation and fitness (by basing the development on interdisciplinary research). Next to the natural sciences, Christine Lötscher pointed out how games are also a fruitful and important subject of media analysis in the humanities. The talk was part of the exhibition "Game Design Today" which you can visit until 23.07.23: https://lnkd.in/d7Un9xKC DIZH ZHdK Zürcher Hochschule der Künste ZHAW Zürcher Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften
