Hi Jane, Firstly I hope you get better soon with that rib injury. It's very difficult because all you can do really is wait it out there's no magic pills/therapy to fix it. Secondly I'd like some advice. I'm posting it on this thread because of your definitions of gaming and American Idol. I have a 12 year old daughter who, as age appropiate, loves everything cool i.e. angst, anything pink,

I'd just like to take the time to say that, no, i don't know you jane...as far as you know, no? Seriously though, i know OF you (via my obsession with Alternate Reality Games (Whoisbenjaminstove is my current one)), so i found your blog, and i thought it was pretty sweet. So i keep reading it. Good work!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and i'm waiting until i'm nice and awake before i attempt to read (or more

Hi Paul! Thanks so much for the clarification... I'll shoot you an email to to expound on the references you suggested. :) By the way, having finished up that chapter "A ubiquitous computing approach to play and performance", I should say that I've actually opted to work primarily with Rich Gold's more fanciful and playful design statements and presentations in terms of articulating a particular

hello, anonymous #1 here. actually i do know you, i just dislike blog sign-ins (for reasons i won't get into...).<BR/><BR/>if this is old-hat to you, feel free to ignore it - i'm just amplifying on what i said earlier.<BR/><BR/>"breaching experiments" is a term associated with the sociologist harold garfinkel. in a nutshell, you grossly "violate" some common-sense "norm" and see what happens.

ROFL-- Danyel, that is an excellent idea. By the way, Googlewhacking... have you read Dave Gorman's Googlewhacking adventure? I couldn't recommend a more fun book!

Jane,<BR/><BR/>I would propose that you call these "spimes", and enter an implicit competition with Bruce Sterling. This would be a designed environment, and--to the extent that either of you (or your favorite search engine) are embedded in the real world (or that your dissertation and the talks you give count as material), you would be able to even assert that your spime was, itself, a

Hi Bruce! No worries, tag is definitely in the ballpark-- gamey, physical, social... and thanks for introducing yourself! It's nice to meet you. :) At the very least, a stream of new anonymous comments is a good reminder to maybe contextualize some of what I say better.

I made the "tag" comment above. I only hoped it would be helpful in some way and didn't mean any offense. I discovered your site when the Latchkey Project was picked up by some gaming news sites, and read through all your various projects with great interest. Again, I meant no disrespect and wish you the best.<BR/><BR/>Bruce

I'm sorry, now I just have to ask -- who is reading my blog?? I thought it was people who, like, basically know me. But some of the comments on this post have really confused the heck out of me! :) So, I'm actually a game designer and actually writing about games, and so, no, I'm not extending or working with Wittgenstein's metaphor of the language game, I'm writing about games. And I actually

New anonymous here,<BR/><BR/>This might be my fault since I didn't track down and read your proposed thesis statement, but--<BR/><BR/>Are you pretty much just extending Wittgenstein's work on language games to other, non-verbal (or at least less exclusively verbal) human behaviour? I mean, are you providing a new explaination for a group of phenomena, or more applying an old theory to a

Anonymous #1, why would that harsh my mellow? Of course I am working precisely with that statement by Weiser and others (Rich Gold in particular) as the design manifestos to which I refer in the original post. And heightening awareness of the world around us-- of course that is an aim of my own games and the games that I am writing about! That's something I've always said. I'm not sure I

"Ubiquitous gaming" makes me think of something like tag, which can be played almost anywhere at almost any time. Actually I guess that mostly fits within your described framework, with the exception of having a significant material component.<BR/><BR/>Good luck.
