Guy ‘Yug’ Blomberg Creator and owner of the Mana Bar – http://www.ManaBar.com.au/ The first cocktail and console video game bar in the world – Guy ‘Yug’ Blomberg has managed to bring his passion for drinking and playing video games out of the lounge room and into the public conscious. Makes sense now, but the creation of the Mana Bar is an epic tale of hopes, dreams, conflict, romance, danger, and entrepreneurship. Not just the pretty face of the Mana Bar however, ‘Yug’ has been a graphic designer for the better part of a decade – working his way up from the depths of the adult industry to the suit & tie respectability as a Creative Director, and everything in between. He also created and operates one of the largest independent video game websites in Australia – www.AustralianGamer.com, and has been through the highs and lows of bringing a video game network TV show to life – www.GameDamage.net. Respected as a gaming journalist, acknowledged as an accomplished graphic designer, embraced as a champion for the local game development industry, and unanimously toasted for his crazy ideas that somehow become reality – he guarantees at the very least some entertaining stories and will shout you a drink at his bar! * Register Free at http://www.thehive.org.au & Become a Fan of The Hive Brisbane on Facebook * See you there!
