The concept of "meaningful space" is unattributed. It should be attributed to Yuri Engelhardt.

We should insert a sentence like the following.

Just like every other game, chess creates a world that players can explore together. The chessboard (meaningful space) creates the boundaries of the world, and the pieces (artifacts) populate the world.

Insertion>

Meaningful space was first articulated by researcher Yuri Engelhard in his doctoral thesis, The Language of Graphics.

<end insertion

The rules of the game govern what is and isn't possible in the world. Chess players agree to enter the world in order to explore the possible permutations and combinations and try to achieve their goals, which, in the case of chess, are achieved at the expense of the other player. However, in gamestorming, more often the players share a common goal.

Please add:

"And one important note: The pace of the Graphic Jam can be ramped up by putting a shorter time limit on how long players have to draw their representations of the words. Give players 30 seconds with a hard stop for each word and you'll see how high the energy level in the room rises. It's not really a competition, but people respond to it that way, and the 30-second round can deliver peak (or at least hilarious!) results."

the picture

This was my error - the image was slightly grayed because I didn't adjust the black and white levels appropriately. I'm sending the replacement image by email. My apologies.

The figure is titled "Graphic Jam.tif"

The illustrations are upside down and they looked like they have been stretched.
