Foundations of Digital Games 2013 – Call for Posters and Demos, and Workshop Papers
14-17 May 2013, Chania, Crete, Greece, http://www.fdg2013.org/

We invite researchers and educators to submit to FDG 2013 and share insights and cutting-edge research related to game technologies and their use. FDG 2013 will include presentations of peer-reviewed papers, invited talks by high-profile industry and academic leaders, and panels. The conference will also host a Research and Experimental Games Festival, and a Doctoral Consortium. The Research and Experimental Games Festival will showcase the latest experimental and research games. The Doctoral Consortium serves as a forum for Ph.D. students to present their dissertation research, exchange experiences with peers, discuss ideas for future research and receive feedback from established games researchers and the
wider FDG community.
