“You might have a light bulb moment on the couch. But everybody’s had an idea. It’s about action and doing something with it.”
Brent Bushnell
Bushnell may be a name that sounds familiar, and it should be. Nolan Bushnell was the founder of ATARI and Chuck E. Cheese and essentially paved the road for his son Brent to follow in his footsteps.
Games like Cyberpunk 2077, Grand Theft Auto, Pokémon, Fortnight, Minecraft, Call of Duty, Super Mario Brothers would not be possible if it wasn’t for the innovations and “gamifications” his father invented and created.
Brent Bushnell makes an impact everywhere he goes and finds ways to make the impossible possible. His resume is impressive as his projects and hunger to innovate, develop, and invent has only just begun.
Brent began creating interactive art with Eric Gradman. Inspired by their synergy and the possibilities, they created Two Bit Circus. Their goal was to create an environment where everyone can connect while having fun and celebrating creativity. It is an experiential entertainment company that strives to create an immersive, socially fun micro amusement park with an interactive supper club, free-roaming VR, robot bartenders, and more.
