Increasingly, games and game technology are changing the space of our daily life. There is a growing effort both in the games industry and within academia to extend current approaches to game design in order to create types of experiences radically more engaging, entertaining and interactive than today's commercial games provide. Applications of these new designs and technologies will affect not oly the way we play but also the way we learn, the way we work and the way we interact with our social selves.

The DGRC produces two related venues for the discussion of the future of games, the game industry and games technologies.
