Humour and GamesHi everyone! Like we mentioned on the last episode, we’re having a bit of a format shakeup. We’re going to be diving into the interviews that you heard snippets of throughout previous episodes.

First up, we’re featuring Dr. Brendan Keogh for this week’s episode!

Dr. Brendan Keogh is a Brisbane-based critic, journalist, and academic. He is currently a Research Fellow in the Digital Media Research Centre at Queensland University of Technology. He received his PhD from RMIT University’s School of Media and Communication for a dissertation about the phenomenological and textual entwinings of players and videogames. He has written about the art, industry, and culture of videogames for a range of international outlets including Edge, Polygon, Kotaku, Unwinnable, The New Statesman, Ars Technica, and Overland Literary Journal. He is the author of A Play of Bodies: How We Perceive Videogames and Killings is Harmless: A Critical Reading of Spec Ops The Line.
