Meetup #5 • Creative Code Budapest

Andrea Görcz

In the age of internet paradigm-shift children’s toys and games are changing as well as the toolkit of education.

Andrea has a rare condition, called synaesthesia. It means that the production of a sense impression is relating and stimulating another sense impression in her brain. Recognising it made her learning process much more effective. This phenomenon inspired her to transition from graphic designer to a media artist and to do research on the topic of multi-sensorial learning techniques.

She will talk about how to implement technology in education in a good manner and how digital interfaces are effecting our cognitive-system.

Péter started working as a 3D graphic artist at Stormregion, later he helmed multiple projects as a producer and creative director, leading smaller teams. He founded two independent companies, one of these is Extropia Games. Here he developed a point’n’click adventure game titled Bela Kovacs and the Trail of Blood – the game has been played over one million times on Kongregate and Armor Games.

He took some time off to work as an indie developer and freelancer, he worked on prototypes for games alone and with teams, and he held a Game Jame course at the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design.
