In this episode, I get to look at Chicago GameSpace, an attraction that starts off as a museum of video game history, illustrating the shifts in gaming technology and how those shifts impact pop culture. Joining me from the museum are John Kinkley and Ethan Johnson. The three of us talk about what it means to be a gaming historian, the unique role the Midwest (and Chicago in particular) play in coin-op history, and the site’s recent special exhibition: @!#?@! The Art, Design, and Sound of Q*Bert.
