The Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences has announced that Alex Evans will speak at the 2009 D.I.C.E. Summit, at the Red Rock Resort in Las Vegas, over February 17-20.
The D.I.C.E. Summit - which stands for Design, Innovate, Communicate, Entertain - is the second conference in recent days to confirm the attendance of a Media Molecule head Honcho, with GDC announcing their sessions on Wednesday.
“Our take on ‘Creative Gaming’ is that it’s an incredibly broad church, and LittleBigPlanet represents our particular first take on user generated content,” explained Evans. “The D.I.C.E. Summit gives us the opportunity to present our design philosophy to the industry in the most prestigious forum today.”
Joseph Olin, president of AIAS, added: “The incredible achievement that Alex Evans and his colleagues at Media Molecule accomplished with Little Big Planet is the perfect topic for this year’s conference.”
“The D.I.C.E. Summit line-up is the strongest yet featuring many of the speakers that are defining our industry and laying the groundwork for future generations of game creators.”
