Hello!
I'm a scholar from sunny Famagusta in Cyprus who spends most of his time reading, thinking and writing about games. I'm a founding member of the IGDA Game Design SIG and a co-editor at Game Design Aspect of the Month (GDAM), a collaborative blog on game design which we run together with Sande Chen and Ryon Levitt. When I'm not busy teaching or pondering about games, I continue writing my dissertation which is on interaction and narrativity in video games. I like being on Gamasutra because it makes me feel connected to people who care about games as much as I do.
