• February 2019
How do you feel about games? How should you feel? This talk presents a manifesto for the power of games to go beyond entertainment, and why we all need to think differently about games, gamers and screen time.
Phil Stuart is the founder of BAFTA-winning games studio PRELOADED, a different kind of games studio focussed on using play to solve real-world problems and change peoples lives.
Since 2000, Phil has worked with global partners such as Google, LEGO, Nesta, Disney, Science Museum, Wellcome Trust and TATE to create games on subjects as diverse as neuroscience, drug addiction, mental health, ancient history, literacy, physical science, genetics, death and philosophy.
He is also a parent, passionate about age-appropriate design and the use of technology to enhance life rather than distract from it.
