This week's Friday Games @ GAMBIT is being folded into the Spacewar! event, also
being organized by our lab.

Today beginning at 5PM at the MIT Museum you can play a new version of Spacewar!
built by our lab on a giant mockup of the PDP-1 monitor made especially for the
50th anniversary. At 6:30 there will be a panel featuring one of the creators
of the original game, Martin "Shag" Graetz as well as two members of the PDP-1
Restoration Project, Eric Smith and Mike Chiponis.

Our Spacewar! reconstruction will also be available to play at the MIT Stata
Center's "Student Street" (1st floor) until 5PM, at which point it will move to
the MIT Museum for the evening play session and panel.
