  • Intersomatic Awareness in Game Design
    The London School of Economics and Political Science Intersomatic Awareness in Game Design Siobhán Thomas A thesis submitted to the Department of Management of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. London, June 2015 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work. The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 66,515 words. 2 Abstract The aim of this qualitative research study was to develop an understanding of the lived experiences of game designers from the particular vantage point of intersomatic awareness. Intersomatic awareness is an interbodily awareness based on the premise that the body of another is always understood through the body of the self. While the term intersomatics is related to intersubjectivity, intercoordination, and intercorporeality it has a specific focus on somatic relationships between lived bodies. This research examined game designers’ body-oriented design practices, finding that within design work the body is a ground of experiential knowledge which is largely untapped. To access this knowledge a hermeneutic methodology was employed. The thesis presents a functional model of intersomatic awareness comprised of four dimensions: sensory ordering, sensory intensification, somatic imprinting, and somatic marking.

    Bachelor’s thesis Information & Communications Technology 2021 Jarno Salo STORYTELLING THROUGH GAME AUDIO – case Juuret BACHELOR’S THESIS | ABSTRACT TURKU UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES Information & Communications Technology 2021 | 36 pages Jarno Salo STORYTELLING THROUGH GAME AUDIO • case Juuret Game audio is an integral part of the game development process. It helps greatly in creating immersion and building believable game worlds. Still it is often overlooked or just an afterthought. Badly made game audio can ruin even a good game. The purpose of this thesis was to design and create all the audio for a 3D adventure game called Juuret. It is the first game from a startup game company called FoxFail Creations. The audio was designed based on the research of music and game suggestions given by the commissioner. The design was then further improved after conducting literature research into types of game audio and their roles in creating immersion. After this the music and the ambience were carefully crafted using a Digital Audio Workstation and a MIDI keyboard. The sound effects were then recorded by using a microphone and a USB audio interface. The theoretical section of the thesis examines the evolution of game audio and related technology and how that has affected the ways game audio is created. The thesis also examines what types of game audio exist and the different roles they fill, how music becomes the soundtrack for the player’s actions, how ambience fills the game world with details and how sound effects give feedback to the player about what is happening. Finally the thesis examines what type of workflow to expect when working in an audio role in the game industry.
