Greetings,

The video is now available for the discussion/speech at November's 2014 ZoeCon
II, regarding using role-playing games for therapy and education.

Youtube Video available here: http://youtu.be/TRzPz_y3Wl4

ZoeCon is from Zombie Orpheus Entertainment, creators of The Gamers, The
Gamers II: Dorkness Rising, The Gamers III: Hands of Fate, Journey Quest, and
many other role-playing gaming-related shows.

I was asked to speak at ZoeCon II, the creators of The Gamers, Journey, and
other great shows. They had trouble getting their Audio/Video/Broadcast
equipment working, so they asked me at the last minute, with less than 5
minutes warning, to go ahead and present regarding using role-playing games
for therapy and education, while they tried to get everything online. I am
grateful to them for the opportunity to speak with the slowly gathering
audience (though it was a rather laid-back atmosphere). Due to the situation,
I went with a more interactive discussion and less formal presentation,
especially for the audience. I have a much more formal presentation lined up
for the Washington State Therapeutic Recreation Association 16th annual
conference this April 11th in Seattle.

Since their A/V equipment was down, I was without a microphone, and I just sat
my laptop off to the side to record for posterity. I am sorry the audio and
video is so poor. I spent many hours deciphering the audio as best i could to
add subtitles, since many people kept asking me to upload this video, but I
couldn't do so in good conscience without adding something to make it more
intelligible.

I hope you find this helpful and informative, and I welcome your questions and
feedback.

Happy Gaming!
