# Event Details - **Event Name**: Public Talk on Games with Dr. Florence M. Chee - **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 14 Nov, 2025 at 11:00 am – Fri, 14 Nov, 2025 at 12:00 pm - **Event Description**: Beyond the sandboxes and magic circles: Conversations on the pleasure and pain of what it means to engage in the study of gamesAbout this EventIn this talk, Prof. Dr. Florence Chee will provide an overview to essential debates in games/gaming as they intersect with ethics, law, and policy--along with what it means to research games through academia, industry and government in today's global regulatory landscape. Through her studies on game culture, to ethics and data, to AI and governance, she tells a story of navigating an industry as it struggles to define itself locally and globally while those in it advance the narrative of pleasure and play across domains. Looking ahead, she asks the audience to consider the ways constituencies may reclaim what it means to truly play meaningfully and ways to resist "getting played."Florence M.
