He is one of the foremost contemporary authors of Interactive Fiction, AKA "text adventures". For more information, please see http://www.brasslantern.org/beginners/ and http://ifdb.tads.org/ Andrew is giving a talk about programming language design, specifically the Inform 7 programming language that is a subset of English used as source code for Interactive Fiction. I'm trying to come up with new ideas for panel discussions he can be a part of. And then I realized, since we have so many Lojbanists attending Penguicon this year, what if there is a topic that the Lojban community and Interactive Fiction programmers have in common? Like parsers. I myself don't know enough to flesh out the concept. Any other overlap topics? Do you have any help to offer? -Matt To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to lojban-list-request@lojban.org with the subject unsubscribe, or go to http://www.lojban.org/lsg2/, or if you're really stuck, send mail to secretary@lojban.org for help.
