The Creative Geek is here for the semi-professional to professional designers, creators, tinkerers and makers who want to understand and make games, toys and playful technology. The focus is on play, playfulness and interaction, rather than on the games in themselves.

This can include not only computer games and board games, but also such different activities as role playing games, larp, playful IoT, augmented and virtual reality, escape rooms, pervasive games, playground design and even gamification and play based learning.

We are the ones who not only consume, but also create playful geek culture, in one form or another. If you are a self-defining geek, passionate about creating, this is the place for you!

I'm Dr. Jon Back, a researcher and play designer with a background in interaction design, and a long running focus on creating experiences through games and play.

In this channel, I believe that play is something that’s worth taking seriously. And I believe you think so to!

I try to post regularly, so if you’ve read this far, you’re obviously interested: Make sure to SUBSCRIBE, and together we will learn more about making play happen! https://www.youtube.com/jonbck?sub_confirmation=1
