    2016 Call for Speakers

  • Deadline for submissions is Monday, January 25th 2016

  • The Theme of OIGC's 5th year is Metamorphosis. 

    From the changes a game takes as it moves from concept, to beta and into the world, to the changes in how the culture of gaming has evolved from the edges to the mainstream, transformation is all around us in 2016. Once again, new technological forces are opening up more gaming arenas, as mobile reaches maturity, a new console generation hits its stride, and virtual reality finally appears closer than the horizon. For the conference, Metamorphosis also means an entirely new format, reflecting both a more Festival sensibility and public inclusiveness. It's an exciting year as we turn five. We hope you'll come with us and continue to transform gaming.

    Please be sure to indicate how your talk title is linked to this year's theme, if at all.
