About Why don’t women talk more in video games? A workshop on gender balance in video game dialogue

Who talks, who do they talk to, and what do they say? Researchers from the University of Glasgow and Cardiff University will present results from an ongoing project to collect and analyse video game dialogue, and - through hands-on activities and discussion - start a conversation about gendered dialogue tropes and improving representation. This workshop is run by philosopher Steph Rennick (University of Glasgow), and linguist Seán Roberts (Cardiff University).

This event is part of Explorathon 2021
