Yet another engineer who left it for the arts. What was she thinking? After wasting eleven years as a mechanical engineer on tasks such as performing structural analysis on 30-foot tall liquid sodium cooling pumps for fast breeder reactors and designing high-speed machinery, Linda Law started wasting time instead on managing The Fat Man game audio business. For the last sixteen years she has worked in that capacity as both a business and project manager. In 1996 she co-founded Project Bar-B-Q, the interactive audio think-tank, and established its working group process. She continues to be one of the three principals involved in hosting that conference. In 2006, she and her partners launched Project Horseshoe, aimed at solving game design's toughest problems. Linda is also the chairperson of the IASIG's Interactive XMF working group and a former chair of that organization. She plays the bass almost competently and will surely shoot you a look if you ask her to solo.
