An interview conducted strictly as a task for University, and perhaps an ice breaker activity to get to know my peers

I am Artyom Levashov, a jack of all trades but a master of none.

During my first lessons of Critical Game studies I had to pair up with one of my peers and then we had to interview each other, I was paired up with a kind person named Joe we interviewed each other, we asked each other the exact same questions, like what books we read lately, what films, average game hours a week and things such as that, and I feel that there is hope for me and friendship yet.

But before you now, I will present my questions and answers.

  1. What is the title of the book (fiction) you are currently reading(or the last fiction book you read)?

Now I’m reading ‘The Prodigal Mage’ it’s a sequel to the kingmaker, kingbreaker series written by Karen Miller. I bought it without really knowing it was a sequel, although it doesn’t really feel like one when I read it.

  1. What is the title/topic of the book (non-fiction) you are currently reading (or the last non-fiction book you read)?

I don’t really read non fiction books, to be honest, I don’t read non fiction books for information, I just use Wikipedia!

  1. What is the last life performance (music, drama or dance) you attended?

I have never been! I can never find the time.

  1. What is the title of the last film you saw at the cinema/online or watched on DVD?

Toy Story 3, it was great, It was like watching my childhood end when Andy passed away his toys away.

  1. How often do you read the newspaper? (which one?)

I don’t read the newspaper, it’s boring! Although I do look at the job section every now and then.

  1. Which art gallery/museum/exhibition did you last visit?

I don’t like art galleries, or art, although I do draw.

  1. How many hours a week do you spend playing video games?

It varies daily but at the most about 50 hours a week, but sometimes it’s almost 0!

  1. How many hours a week do you spend playing games other than video games?

I play fight with my little brother, but I don’t know if that really counts.

My answers, I guess, are like the sort of thing you'd expect from a typical, boring and uncultured gamer, however during the duration of the time I will be updating this blog, I hope that you will see that my answers to these questions don't reflect in me and I am a lot more than I seem.
Lastly I welcome you to my new blog, and I hope you enjoy your stay.
