From Whimmydiddles to Capital Punishment the board game, Tyler will guide the audience through a shift from communal experiences to solitary education in America and Europe, examining the cultural forces, family dynamics, new technologies, and the persistent role of ideology in crafting the games we play. This lecture is free and open to all!
