"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Simply Complex Again

Rise and Shine, people! I had the privilege to be hosted again on the Simply Complex Podcast with Marcello Sgambelluri and you can listen all about it here.

I had the chance to talk a little more into detail about the class me, Claudio and Gabriele are going to present at Autodesk University (click here for details) and it wasn’t completely out of topic because, even if we weren’t on the conference channel, the class is about using game design techniques to teach BIM. We are currently working on the handout and on the podcast I made some promises. We’re definitely going to deliver on this one: we’ll bring coffee from Italy because we have the very first class of the very last day, after the party. It’s going to be tough.

Also, we shifted on gaming and I could deliver my verdict on Mass Effect Andromeda.
As I said elsewhere, I am a lover of everything Bioware does so I am partial to this. Still, I am disappointed in the turn their stories and their characters are taking, as I see a rouge line between Inquisition and Andromeda on how your main character scarcely have to earn anything anymore. Anyway, Marcello had a great idea for the next Dragon Age title: devs, you go and check it out.

Marcello also gave us some hints on what he is working on with Stingray and it’s pretty awesome, as usual.

Also, next week I’ll be in London to participate in a training for the Lego Serious Play program, with Robert Rasmussen himself, and I am super excited. I’ll tell you more about it when I come back.

See you!

Well, the new draft of the ISO 19650 has been out for public consultation for a week, now, and I have the feeling nobody’s actually consulting the thing, because the heat of the debate has been around the “disappearance of BIM”. I already wrote about

What a splendid exhibition! I was expecting your regular, run-of-the-mill show at Palazzo Reale, which is usually good enough, but I was surprised at the depth and width of this new endeavour, that spans across the city with multiple initiatives and, even within the show
