Aphasia – A 1980 arcade game
I used to design greeting cards, board games, costumes, program websites and write screenplays. Now, my AlonTree team and I design neurological devices, games and equipment in Asheville, NC.
I knew about aphasia after reading Oliver Sacks’ book, The Man Who Mistook his Wife for a Hat.
But, seriously, having aphasia is like playing a 1980 arcade game.
I design this retro-80s poster for Aphasia, the video game. You know, like, Zaxxon, “game was a critical and commercial success upon release, becoming one of the top five highest-grossing arcade games of 1982 in the United States.”
