Gardner Campbell does a nice job coming in out of the bullpen as a 'designated blogger' (true baseball fans know that this is a mixed metaphor, but don't blame me) to cover Kathy Sierra's presentation to the new media Consortium. There's a bit softness either in the presentation of the coverage - having the audience stand on one leg isn't really that new or provocative. I get the point - "total immersion jams. Yes! Only total immersion gets to peak experience" - but I prefer a bit more crispness in the presentation. Why is total immersion important? What subsystems does it invoke, what form of experience does it create, what mechanisms does it use? Read the article, and you'll see what I mean. For another take on the same presentation, see Chris Lott's presentation.
