Playing with Machines in Cuba

I just published a new article at Miradas, the Escuela Internacional de Cine y Televisión de San Antonio de los Baños magazine. It's probably the best film school in Latin America and, as a young undergrad, I dreamt of studying there (Gabriel García Márquez used to teach scriptwriting down there). Too bad, my film aspirations didn't work out (I ended up learning scriptwriting with Syd Field instead, during a wild seminar in Rio de Janeiro). Anyway, I think I would have never had enjoyed filmmaking. Projects take too long. Television is better I think.
rI left my film days behind, but I learned a lot of production skills and those came certainly handy when we created our game studio with Sofía. But I never completely left TV, since I worked as a TV scriptwriter for a short while in Uruguay, and then worked in digital and game stuff for TV companies in the States. Many, many years ago I once argued that we needed to make games more like TV shows, and I guess that's sort of what webgames are about, at least in terms of production.
rThat was a long introduction for pointing out to an article written in Spanish (sorry to let the non-Spanish speaking crowd down there). Is entitled "Jugando con máquinas" (Playing with machines) and it mixes a little bit of theory, with independent and political gaming production.
