We’re Moving To Indiana University!

I have some rather wonderful news to pass along — my wife Liz Ellcessor and I have both accepted faculty positions at Indiana University in Bloomington. We’ll be leaving Miami University this summer and starting at Indiana in the Fall semester. Liz will be starting as an assistant professor in IU’s Department of Communication and [...]

A New Year, Some Changes

Well, this blog sure hasn’t been updated very often lately, but I hope you’ll forgive me — it’s been quite the busy past few months with a number of exciting new developments in my life. Two weeks ago, I started my position as the C. Michael Armstrong Professor in Interactive Media Studies, as an Assistant [...]

Blogging On AIMS

Just a quick note that today I began semi-regular posting on Miami’s Armstrong Institute for Interactive Media Studies’ (AIMS) blog. Today’s post was just a short introduction to me and what I study, but it’s something. I talk a bit about my interests in studying online communities, design thinking within them, and games: So, a [...]

It’s an endowed, tenure-track, joint position between the School of Education, Health, and Society (EHS) and Miami’s Armstrong Interactive Media Studies (AIMS) [...]

A New SE4N Theme

Well, lookie here, it’s a new theme for my blog! It’s the end of another semester, and so it’s time for a reskinning of my blog. I decided to go for a little bit more of a pixelart style this time (along with my self-portrait at the top, yanked from my Kongregate account). I wanted [...]

New Website & Blog

Hey all, well, remember that new website I’ve been promising for about a year? I finally got down to reskinning the site and moving a few things around in the last few days, and just put it all up this morning. Basically, not much has changed other than I’ve slightly jazzed up the elegant (but [...]

Summer Postin’

It’s been a busy summer, and I still haven’t fixed up this blog like I’d like to. Regardless, it’s been eventful, so I figure I should share some of it with the Internet. I presented two talks and a poster at the Games+Learning+Society 4.0 conference this summer, and ended up winning one of the poster [...]

Falling Bricks

Well, I’ve had this blog in more or less the same format for the past year now, and I’m beginning to tire of it. Obviously, I haven’t been writing very much in the past few months — that’s largely due to work and spending more time on other things — but also, I’m thinking I [...]

Popcosmo.org

It dawned on me this evening that, while I’d posted some shameless self-promotion to Joystick101.org and Constance had posted some shameless self-promotion to TerraNova, I’d never actually bothered to post any shameless self-promotion to my own weblog about a new research blog I’m involved in. So, here ya go: For the past few weeks, I’ve [...]
