Jon Wetherall

In 2004, Jon was the Development Director at Onteca, a company committed to Independent Game Development and the discovery of original Game and Narrative mechanisms. While at Onteca he has worked at the intersection of Arts, Technology and Training. Recently Jon worked on ‘Another Green World’, a collaboration between Disabled Artists and Computer Game Developers funded by the Arts Council and the ‘Game Plan’ at Media Training North West.

Jon was one of the founders of the award winning International Centre for Digital Content where he co-developed the first Digital Games Masters programme in the UK. His experience as a senior computer game programmer at Sony taught him that the most interesting work occurs when Artists and Technologist collaborate.
