Presentation format

Ajarn Moe krub, we have searched long and hard on how to make a game for the presentation this Tuesday. We want a game that you can walk around and run into different pages and it will maximize the page that we walk into. However, we have not found a way yet. We have however developed an argument for our topic.

Theres one question though. Ajarn Moe do you think that simulation always precedes interaction? There always need to be a simulation of some sort before you can interact in it right? So, we cant really say we are exploring simulation versus interaction. Rather we should say we are exploring the relationship between simulation and interaction krub?

Group Dinner this Friday Sept. 10 ?

All,

Should we all go out for dinner this Friday Sept. 10?
If yes, let me know where.
