The aim of this conference is to contribute to the development of discussions of philosophical problems that are raised by the study of computer games.
This conference is the end result of an initiative originally taken 2005, when Filosofisk Prosjektsenter and the Department of Philosophy, Classics, History of Art and Ideas at University of Oslo, contacted Center for Computer Games Research at the IT-University of Copehagen about organizing a workshop on philosophical problems that arise in games research.
Since then, an ever expanding group of partners have been involved in the effort. The next conference was held in Reggio-Emilia, Italy in 2007 and the last was held in Potsdam, Germany 2008.
The contributors have so far been dominated by media researchers, but we are hoping to increase the presence of traditional philosophers with an interest for this subject.
