Frequently Asked Questions

Can I participate without coming to Tampere physically?
We are sorry but that is not possible, since the seminar is inteded to be a meeting in order to create networks and to exchange ideas.

What the event will be like in practice?
We expect to have around 25-50 participants, including some 15-20 presenters. We only plan to have one line of program, and will try to dedicate time for discussion as well. All papers will receive a brief commentary from the commentators Craig A. Lindley (Gotland University) and Lisbeth Klastrup (ITU of Copenhagen) after the presentations.

Have you hosted similar events before?
Yes, Playing Roles is modeled after our 2004 winter seminar Creative Gamers.

Where can I get information on accommodation in Tampere?
We recommend Omena Hotel Tampere.
