Cologne Game Lab Announces the Next Young Academics Workshop

The Young Academics Workshop (YAW) was first organised in 2017 as part of the Clash of Realities conference, which sees itself as a conference for art, technology and theory of digital games. With no continuation of Clash of Realities currently in sight, the Cologne Game Lab has announced that the YAW and Game Jam will take place in mid-March. The event consists of a conference part on 18 March and the Game Jam part on 19 March. Both deal with the topic ‘Games, Politics & Psychology: Community Building in Games & Virtual Worlds’.
