Adam Sulzdorf-Liszkiewicz

Adam Sulzdorf-Liszkiewicz is an American designer and educator who teaches at Occidental College. He has designed virtual reality games and serious games.[1][2]

History

Sulzdorf-Liszkiewicz received a MFA from SUNY Buffalo and a PhD from the USC Interactive Media & Games Division. He has taught game design and theory at the University of California, Los Angeles. As a student he developed theory around popular games, specifically FarmVille, as a cultural phenomenon.[3][4]

Theory on Virtual Reality

Sulzdorf-Liszkiewicz has been credited with connecting Absurdism with Virtual Reality (VR) as an extension of ongoing philosophy on how humans imagine themselves when in VR environments. He has cited the absurdist Fluxus art movement as a point of entry for this theory.[5] In these same conversations he has described the importance of so-called Relational Aesthetics in VR, where human-to-human relationships outside of the VR headset are important to setting up any experience within.[6]

Sulzdorf-Liszkiewicz designed the VR game Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades, which was released in 2017.[7]

gollark: I don't think it would technically need to do a *full* reverse proxy job, since all it needs to do is look at the Host header (or SNI on HTTPS requests, although that might go away at some point?) and route accordingly, but still.
gollark: I suppose you could install caddy instead of nginx too, but I don't like it.
gollark: ```apache<VirtualHost *:80> ServerName thing1.com ProxyPass "/" "http://192.xxx.xxx.25"</VirtualHost>```seems like something which should work.
gollark: That would probably make your "edge" thing quite busy, since it would effectively be working as... half a reverse proxy.
gollark: So just stick different reverse proxy configurations in each "virtual host", I'm sure apache can do that much.
