NYU Game Center Lecture Series Presents Bonnie Ruberg
Thursday, October 17, 2019
Video games are rich sites of potential for exploring LGBTQ issues and queer experiences. In this session, Bonnie “Bo” Ruberg (they/them pronouns) will present work from their 2019 book Video Games Have Always Been Queer. Ruberg will discuss how queerness can be found in video games beyond the surface-level representation of LGBTQ characters. They will address interpretation, play, and design as ways of uncovering the queer implications of video games.
