2017 MAP Conference Interviews

The following videos are additional interviews that Human Para and Majestic Plural Studios conducted with some of the presenters. These videos can also be found under each individual speaker’s presentation page. They are compiled here for the ease of the viewers. A huge thanks to the researchers for sitting down with Human Para to answer our questions and to Jason of Majestic Plural Studios for partnering with us to make these interviews possible.
