ThinkIndie Future Trends

ThinkIndie Future Trends is a talk currently scheduled to appear at IndieCade 2017.

Summary
No art form is more closely linked with technology than computer games. Yet the nature of the art form is not defined by that technology - game makers take computing technologies designed for purpose, and twist them into playful entertainment and art. In 2017 we have several new technologies upon us, ranging from complex and expensive VR and AR, to cheap microcontrollers and maker technologies, as well as great leaps forward in software, particularly AI. We'll discuss how these new and upcoming technologies might find their way into the Indiecades of the future.
