Join our FIRST-EVER Game for Thought Cafe, a cozy space where you can have a drink and chat about ethically-relevant topics in the industry.

Rijselsestraat 19

H﻿i everyone, and welcome to our first-ever GAME FOR THOUGHT CAFE, held at the Unwrap Cafe (located at Rijselsestraat 19, 8500 Kortrijk)! We can't wait for you to enjoy delicious drinks paired with inspiring, thought-provoking conversation.T﻿he idea of the Game for Thought Cafe has been circulating within our community for a while now -- and finally will launch next week, Tuesday 22 November. We're thrilled to host this pilot session with you all.W﻿hat's the goal? --&gt; Aside from the monthly Game for Thought livestream series, we'd love to give students and staff alike a (physical) place to explore ethically-relevant/psychologically-relevant/philosophically-relevant topics in the games &amp; digital entertainment industry. Each session (ideally a couple cafes per semester), we'll focus on a certain topic and will work from discussion points with the goal of cultivating an informal, enjoyable, inspiring discussion club vibe. We'll also offer a (brief!) text from which to work from throughout the evening -- discussing points made, offering varying viewpoints, challenging opinions... Not necessary to read, but a helpful discussion companion.I﻿n short: The goal: A cozy, inspiring place in which to discuss unique topics relevant to the industry &amp; DAE students alike. (You'll be able to purchase drinks -- alcoholic or non-alcoholic -- at the bar, so be sure to bring method of payment if interested). Think Game for Thought meets book/discussion club!O﻿ur very first topic will be Identity &amp; Role-Playing Games. (Any DND fans out there?) D﻿ATE: 22 November 2022 T﻿IME: 7-9 pm ﻿ LOCATION: The Unwrap Cafe (Textielhuis); Rijselsestraat 19, 8500 Kortrijk ﻿ TOPIC OF DISCUSSION: Identity &amp; Role-Playing GamesP﻿lease register for a spot beforehand via this Eventbrite link so we can properly prepare logistics.A﻿ny questions?
