After evaluating the laptops, the organization concluded that while the displays and performance levels “did very well,” the inconsistent battery life meant it couldn’t recommend them.

  • Disruptive Behaviors Within Ingress. (Under the Direction of Dr
    ABSTRACT HUNZAKER, MICHELLE ASHLEY. Intent or Misinterpretation? Disruptive Behaviors within Ingress. (Under the direction of Dr. Nick Taylor). Disruptive behaviors, such as trolling, have eluded definition across multiple platforms. Adding another case study and new platform to the list of past scholar definitions, this study does not define what disruptive behavior looks like in location-based mobile games (LBMG), but looks at how a community within the LBMG, Ingress, views and manages disruptive behaviors. Through the combined use of multi-cited ethnography and connective ethnography, three themes came from 11 participant interviews (8 male and 3 female) with examples from interviews and observations of public, in-game communications panes and private community messaging channels and forums and suggestions of how to manage these behaviors are noted. Additionally, suggestions are offered about how to perform future ethnographic work within hybrid spaces such as LBMGs and augment reality games (ARG). © Copyright 2016 Michelle Ashley Hunzaker All Rights Reserved Intent or Misinterpretation?

  • The Space Between Debord and Pikachu
    The Space Between Debord and Pikachu Dr Hugh Davies Pervasive Games Designer and Researcher Swinburne University [email protected] Dr Troy Innocent Senior Lecturer of Games and Interactivity Swinburne University [email protected] ABSTRACT In the heady discourse following the launch of Pokémon Go, many of the game’s influences, histories and precursors were forgotten or over-looked. Against the newness in which Pokémon Go is often framed, this article re-contextualises its history examining comparable practices and recalling the games evolution from earlier locative applications developed by Google to the experimental games of the modernist Avant Garde to which it has been compared. Central to this paper is discussion of the opportunities in the pervasive game development process for encoding and recoding the city by balancing in- game content with the nuances of the urban landscape in which it is played. While Pokémon Go has been revelatory in bringing awareness of pervasive gaming into the mainstream, this discussion of location-based games, public art projects, and playful approaches to urban exploration aims to fill gaps in the history of the field, and offer new possibilities for future game design and analysis. Keywords Pervasive Game design, Location-based games, Pervasive-games, Pokémon Go INTRODUCTION The augmented reality (AR) game Pokémon Go was released on July 6th, 2016. Within 12 hours, it became the top-grossing app on the Apple Store. In less than a week, it was a global phenomenon drawing opinions from broad social and political spheres (Keogh 2016; Downs 2016). Much was written on the game in the following weeks, discussing its immense popularity and societal impact (Lee 2016; Colley et al.

  • EPIC Letter to FTC Request for Investigation of Pokemon GO July
    July 22, 2016 Chairwoman Edith Ramirez The Federal Trade Commission 600 Pennsylvania Ave., N.W. Washington, D.C. 20580 Dear Chairwoman Ramirez and FTC Commissioners: We are writing to you regarding the data collection practices of Niantic, Inc. (“Niantic”), a former Google company and the developer of the Pokemon GO app. As you are likely aware, Niantic granted itself full access to users’ Google accounts when it first released the Pokemon GO app. This was almost certainly in violation of the Federal Trade Commission’s (“FTC”) earlier consumer privacy decisions and posed an enormous security risk to millions of Internet users who downloaded the app.1 The company concedes that it made a serious mistake, but questions remain about the scope of Niantic’s ongoing data collection practices, a similar episode involving Google Street View and the Niantic CEO, as well as Niantic’s ongoing relationship with Google. These questions raise important privacy issues that we urge the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) to pursue. The Developers of Pokemon GO Have Repeatedly Disregarded Consumer Privacy and Security When Nianitic released Pokemon GO, the company granted itself “full access” to the accounts of users who signed up for the game with a Google account.2 Full account access allowed the company to view users’ contacts; view and send e-mail; view and delete Google Drive documents; access search and map navigation history; and view private photos stored in Google Photos.3 At no time did Niantic request user permission for full access to Google accounts; users simply logged in to the app via their Google account without receiving any 1 Adam Reeve, Pokemon Go is a Huge Security Risk, TUMBLR (July 8, 2016), http://adamreeve.tumblr.com/post/147120922009/pokemon-go-is-a-huge-security-risk.

  • TESTIMONY of John Hanke Founder & Chief Executive Officer Niantic
    TESTIMONY of John Hanke Founder & Chief Executive Officer Niantic, Inc. before the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation United States Senate “Exploring Augmented Reality” 16 November 2016 Introduction Mr. Chairman, Ranking Member Nelson, and members of the Committee, my name is John Hanke, and I am the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Niantic, Inc., a mobile gaming company headquartered in San Francisco, California. On behalf of the 75 dedicated and innovative professionals at Niantic, it is an honor to be here before you today to talk about augmented reality, or “AR,” and specifically, the current state of AR technology, where it’s going, and what lessons we have learned that would be of interest to you as policymakers. We understand today’s hearing may in part be due to the extraordinary global response to Niantic’s latest mobile app, Pokémon GO. We are particularly proud that this game has helped to turn the world’s attention to the current reality and enormous potential of AR for entertainment, education, and community-building. With that said, I know I speak for all of my colleagues at Niantic when I say that what we experienced following the game’s launch in July far exceeded our own imaginations. As we rolled out the game, the immediate reception was almost surreal. My wife emailed to tell me that Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert are talking about Pokémon GO. Professional athletes and celebrities began tweeting pictures from the app of themselves with Pokémon. Thousands signed up for a Pokémon walk on the National Mall here in Washington, and a similar walk in San Francisco.

  • 1 Locating Mobile Media Audiences: in Plain View With
    LOCATING MOBILE MEDIA AUDIENCES: IN PLAIN VIEW WITH POKÉMON GO Gerard Goggin, University of Sydney Author version of chapter to be published in Craig Hight and Ramaswami Harindranath, eds., Studying Digital Media Audiences: Perspectives from Australasia (New York: Routledge, 2017; https://www.routledge.com/Studying-Digital-Media-Audiences-Perspectives-from- Australasia/Hight-Harindranath/p/book/9781138224568) INTRODUCTION Mobile media audiences have been anticipated for a fair while. Yet they have frustrated their promoters by turning up late, and not quite in the manner predicted. So, the rapturous reception of Pokémon GO in early July 2016 must have seemed like a dream come true. Launched first in the US, Australia, and New Zealand, then Japan some three weeks later, and followed by a wide range of other countries, the Pokémon GO app achieved instant popularity, outstripping sales of other mobile game apps such as Candy Crush and Clash of Clans, at comparable stages of their careers. Overnight, cities witnessed thousands of gamers and fan congregrating in public places, catching Pokémon characters, seeking out Pokéstops, harvesting Poké balls and eggs, training and competing in Pokémon GO gyms, and logging kilometres travelled. As the creator company Niantic spruiked it: “Players can explore the world and play the game while keeping their attention on the people and sites around them. A walk in the park just became more fun. :-)”1 Regardless of your viewpoint, with Pokémon GO, mobile media audiences had arrived in droves: reconfigured, playful, fanatical, out and about, in your face, and public space. In the midst of the phenomenon, the first question that pops into someone’s head when encountering and observing someone intently using a mobile device tends to be: “are they playing Pokémon GO?” Media coverage focussed on the dangers to life and limb to and from inattentive and absorbed players, and malevent bystanders and others hanging out in public spaces.

    Documentary Photography and the Edge of the Sword A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Jack A. Opal April 2017 © 2017 Jack A. Opal. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Documentary Photography and the Edge of the Sword by JACK A. OPAL has been approved for the School of Art + Design and the College of Fine Arts by Jennie Klein Associate Professor of Art Elizabeth Sayrs Interim Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT OPAL, JACK A., M.A., April 2017, Art History Documentary Photography and the Edge of the Sword Director of Thesis: Jennie Klein This thesis attempts to answer questions and concerns of Martha Rosler and Allan Sekula regarding documentary photography. Rosler wondered – decades ago, now – if documentary photography could ever supersede its benign liberal origins and become, in her own words, radical. Sekula feared our inattentiveness to the tool’s equal use by the state to repressive ends. By addressing the past preoccupations of the arch- documentarians, this thesis attempts to find the state of documentary and image-making in the contemporary. This paper consists of three parts: the first, which deals with the battle surrounding image-making in public as embodied by copwatching; the second, which more directly addresses the impact of cell phones on documentary, the decline of professional news photography, and the rise of a new subject-author; and the last, which considers the operation of the drone and the images it produces.

  • Executive Summary We Downloaded Pokeomon Go to See What All the Fuss Was About and Were Intrigued When Our Experiences As a Family Matched the Game Creators Aims
    ISTE DigCit PLN Pokémon Go – Back to School Advice Executive Summary We downloaded Pokeomon Go to see what all the fuss was about and were intrigued when our experiences as a family matched the game creators aims. Technology delivering on what it set out to do isn’t something that happens every day in education. Equally, when was the last time that a product launched that so much was written about the game? The amount that’s been written about Pokemon Go in the last 6 weeks has been astounding. We are sure there are a lot of EdTech companies who would love to have this kind of exposure when their product or service was launched. We decided to explore the game by curating and listening to what educators were saying about Pokemon Go. When reviewing these articles in relation to Digital Citizenship we organized the data under the following headings: The Nine Elements of Digital Citizenship, The way ideas get adopted and The Technology Adoption Cycle, we consider the cost of Free EdTech before exploring the views of K12 educators and college staff before exploring some of the articles with safety advice, advice for parents, the health benefits and the social impact of the game. For any educators who are already exploring the game we have some Subject Related Ideas. This is something that our friends at the ISTE Games and Simulations PLN added to with some fantastic content regarding how educators can take advantage of all the Pokemon Go buzz Background: We take a look at the background of the company that created Pokemon Go, and hopefully provide the basis of a social studies lesson by asking have things changed all that much between the 1850’s, Niantic CEO’s childhood days and today.
