Still bummed out that Strange Loop isn't happening anymore. Does anyone know of similar conferences? #strangeloop

A good question from this morning: what’s a good way to discover local and regional conferences like #bangbangcon, #strangeloop, #gogaruco, and all the lovely eclecticons.

Anyone have advice on this?

If you can't get enough @roguelike_con (#RoguelikeCelebration), here's a talk from this year's #Strangeloop from @pyrofoux on #ProcGen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nq5C82Nn7XM&list=PLcGKfGEEONaBNsY_bOj8IhbCPvj6OAdWo&index=40 (Oatmeal is cheap: A fundamental theorem for procedural generators)

ok here is a... strange loop:

I really enjoyed this #strangeloop talk about procedural generation. Having experimented with it quite a bit in the past (and continuing to do so!) it's extraordinarily easy to create an endless sea of samey algorithmic mash, much trickier to turn that into something interesting.
