Chris O'Regan talks to Diarmid Campbell of the University of Cambridge about how Wired was developed. Educational games are typically very bad, for a whole variety of reasons and the challenge to make one that is both educational and entertaining is one that was presented to Diarmid Campbell by the Engineering department of the University of Cambridge and he rose to it. The fruit of his efforts is Wired, an excellent game that describes the intricacies of electrical circuits and how currents pass through them via the medium of video games. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/sausage/180916_TSF_Episode197.mp3   Edited by Chris O'Regan
