Not only was Cyberball part of the exhibit, but when I got to the machine there were two other rabid Cyberball fans duking it out, including Associate Creative Director Charlie Short of Exopolis. I told Charlie I was just about ready to kiss the Cyberball machine when I saw it, and he looked at me a little funny but he understood. He said he'd heard about the exhibit two weeks ago, and the first thing that he wanted to know what whether or not there would be a Cyberball machine. They had Cyberball at the Brown University arcade down the street from where I grew up, and I spent many a high school sunday plunking in 8 tokens to take on all challengers. There's even an online league that grew up around it (which sadly appears to be down).
