When classrooms have become ideological battlegrounds, the authors devise an inclusive games design pedagogy using crafting as their method.
Anne Sullivan
Anne Sullivan is an Assistant Professor in Computational Art at York University in the School of the Arts, Media, Performance, and Design. Anne’s research forges connections and creates bridges—between research fields, communities, and people—from humanistic, artistic, and technical perspectives. She approaches this predominantly through critical game design and analysis, co-creative artificial intelligence (AI), and human-computer interaction (HCI). She uses these lenses to critically examine and create playful, storied, and inclusive interactive experiences for education, craft, and games.
WHO SUPPORTS US
The team of MAI supporters and contributors is always expanding. We’re honoured to have a specialist collective of editors, whose enthusiasm & talent gave birth to MAI.
However, to turn our MAI dream into reality, we also relied on assistance from high-quality experts in web design, development and photography. Here we’d like to acknowledge their hard work and commitment to the feminist cause. Our feminist ‘thank you’ goes to:
