In fact we published a <a href="”http://www.gvu.gatech.edu/arfacade/files/AEL-PresEngage-CHI07.pdf”" rel="nofollow">study</a> that supports your sentiment… "what ensued however as I became more acclimated was truly one of the most uncomfortable interactive experiences of my life — very true to the game." We also found that players did have a hard time stepping out of the role, to engage playfully. The original desktop version feels more like portraying a role, rather than "being" the role, making the uncomfortable social scenario more pleasant – to some extent. :) Very insightful Mark.

We each presented our current lines of work and concerns (the text of mine is at the end of this post), followed by some freewheeling discussion (blogged by Mark at WRT), responding to thoughts and questions from the audience. That was great, though in addition, in a future gathering, I&#8217;d love to have each us directly address and discuss a set of focused topics. (Noah brought a few seed topics for us, but we didn&#8217;t really get to them.) Some of us did manage to admit various feelings of guilt about this or that, so it was therapeutic in that way. ;-) [...] […] The symposium was good too, although I felt just the start of what could be a bigger and better one.

After having beta-tested and played Facade for far too long, to be able to see and explore this physical rendering of Trip and Grace’s apartment constructed was a bit like Going to Disneyland, and entering it was like going to Disneyland and encountering Mickey and Minnie’s “World of Baggage” in Toon Town.
