Attentive to this very interesting racket organised by our friends at Antihype: on 28 and 29 September is celebrated at the University Carlos III of Madrid who have come to holder as I Workshop transdisciplinary: identity and video games: the reconstruction of the subject in the digital age, a series of lectures and round tables where will talk about a subject as complex as the identity and its different forms within the game.

Perhaps the most striking of the workshop is the word “transdisciplinary”, which in this case means that the central theme will try it people who come from different corners of the studies of video games, people from the humanities, psychology, journalism, philosophy, Visual Arts, sociology, Narratology, or sociology, with the idea that the conclusions that go out are most comprehensive and cross-cutting possible , that will shuffle approaches of all type. There will be issues as the player as form of identity, video games that allow the study of the identity or the identities virtual.

Between them ladies and gentlemen that is will lend to talk and discuss on these things there are people pretty, pretty of truth that equal you sound of something as Victor Manuel Martinez of AnaitGames, Ruth Garcia of Arsgames, the screenwriter Joshua Monchan, Enrique Alonso of Eurogamer, Jorge Gonzalez of Gaymer.es and contributors usual in our santa House as Nus caves or Alberto Murcia.
