The Cologne Game Lab has opened. Really fresh news, send to me by Krystian Majewski (he twitters as well), who is co-writer of the great Game Design Scrapbook-blog and also part of this lab. The site design is somehow fresh (and unlucky me I am just right at the moment working on a new site with almost the same colors).
The direction of the lab is interdisciplinary research on a bigger scale, as well as practice-near research, also for single companies. They also offer a “Master in Game Development & Research”. In addition they are planning workshops and seminars for creative talents already working in that field. The lab is attached to the KISD and the FH Köln. In other words… this sounds massive and like perfect timing. I am curious of things to come.
