Sunday Assembly - Do What You Love
Details
Join us for Assembly! Our speaker is member Alex Rudnick, a father, software engineer, researcher and educator who wants us to tell him about the hobbies that we love, and he will tell us about one of the hobbies that he loves.
During his doctoral work some years ago, Alex reconnected with his love of video games about fighting, and got involved with the fighting game community, which spans from tiny local groups to online meetups to big international competitions. Why do people spend their time playing video games about fantasy martial arts, and what does it mean to take them seriously? Alex will talk about the games and the communities around them and how one way to live better is to go deep into a thing that you love, and to share that love with other people.
We'll be singing
