It's been fifty years since Atari’s revolutionary game, Pong, ushered in a Renaissance for video arcades in America and gave rise to the animatronic house bands of Chuck E. Cheese and Showbiz Pizza. Albort experienced it in real time and invites you to join him for a stroll down memory lane with detours at the 1982 World’s Fair, Blockbuster Video and the hilarious antics that take place within “Shadowrama” all while avoiding the Noid. As a bonus you’ll get familiar with the “pleasure principle”, time shifting, parallel visual processing, the innermost thoughts of Pac-Man’s enemies, negative option billing and the “Netflix Effect”.
