Level 5: Mob Fest

After arcade machines, consoles, handhelds and installations, we've  
finally reached the virtual Level 5: Mobile Games. The three-day Mob  
Fest marks the end of the Arcade exhibition. Expect two days of in- 
depth discussion about and demonstrations of mobile games, and one  
Ignite evening consisting of 15 speedy 5-minute talks. Buy your  
tickets online.

March 23rd: Thinking Mobile
How can mobile games excel beyond the level of ‘play once and never  
use again’? In other words: what makes a good mobile game? We'll be  
speaking with Kars Alfrink of Hubbub, Richard Birkin (UK) of Mudlark,  
and NIMk artist in residence Duncan Speakman (UK). Hosted by Michiel  
de Lange. Buy your ticket here.
March 24th: Doing Mobile
Games are an easy way of addressing complex issues and igniting people  
to get involved. How can mobile games contribute to a better future?  
What good can a mobile game do? Louise Down (UK) of Tate Modern, Karel  
Millenaar of FourceLabs and Emer Beamer of Butterfly Works will be  
joining us in discussing these questions. The evening will again be  
hosted by Michiel de Lange. Buy your ticket here.
March 25th: Ignite Amsterdam 7
Ignite is a fast-paced and merciless evening, full of fresh ideas and  
clever insights. Speakers get five minutes to present an idea or  
project. They make use of twenty slides that auto-advance every  
fifteen seconds. The seventh edition is all about mobile games. We'll  
be speaking to game developers, journalists, artists and  
programmers.Speakers and tickets on the website.
