Game Jams and Hobbyists is a talk I did at Aalto University in Finland in December 2013. Since this was a university talk, I felt it was important to do something Academically substantial and so did a lot of research on the history of collaborative design and the evolution of game jams. I hope you enjoy the slides. Links to videos of the presentation can be found at http://mediafactory.aalto.fi/games-now-2013/game-jams-and-hobbyists/
