I am very honoured to be part of Professor Vladimir Geroimenko’s new book duet, Augmented Reality Games I and II, out now with Springer. My chapter, Defacing the “Balloon Dog”, appears in Volume II, pleased to be dwarfed by critical art theory luminaries such as the phenomenal Gregory Ulmer, John Craig Freeman and Patrick Lichty. Thank you Vlad for the wonderful opportunity, and your thorough presentation of the augmented games world.
