Casual and Hardcore Players in HBO's Westworld (2016): the Immoral and Violent Player
Casual and Hardcore Players in HBO’s Westworld (2016): The Immoral and Violent Player MA Thesis Ellen Menger – 5689295 [email protected] Supervisor: Dr. René Glas Second reader: Dr. Jasper van Vught Utrecht University MA New Media & Digital Culture MCMV10009 - THE-Masterthesis/ MA NMDC May 8, 2017 Abstract This thesis approaches the HBO series Westworld (2016) through the lens of game studies and interprets the series as a commentary on the stereotype of casual and hardcore players and immoral violence in video games. By performing a textual analysis, this thesis explores how Westworld as a series makes use of the casual and hardcore player stereotype, looking at the way the series explores the construction of player categories and how it ties these to the dialogue about violence and immoral behaviour in video games. Keywords: Westworld, games, player types, Western, casual gamer, hardcore gamer, violence, ethics, morals SPOILER WARNING This thesis reveals certain plot twists that may spoil part of the storyline of the first season of HBO’s Westworld. If you have not watched the series, read at your own risk. Table of Contents 1.

Beyond Westworld
“We Don’t Know Exactly How They Work”: Making Sense of Technophobia in 1973 Westworld, Futureworld, and Beyond Westworld Stefano Bigliardi Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane - Morocco Abstract This article scrutinizes Michael Crichton’s movie Westworld (1973), its sequel Futureworld (1976), and the spin-off series Beyond Westworld (1980), as well as the critical literature that deals with them. I examine whether Crichton’s movie, its sequel, and the 1980s series contain and convey a consistent technophobic message according to the definition of “technophobia” advanced in Daniel Dinello’s 2005 monograph. I advance a proposal to develop further the concept of technophobia in order to offer a more satisfactory and unified interpretation of the narratives at stake. I connect technophobia and what I call de-theologized, epistemic hubris: the conclusion is that fearing technology is philosophically meaningful if one realizes that the limitations of technology are the consequence of its creation and usage on behalf of epistemically limited humanity (or artificial minds). Keywords: Westworld, Futureworld, Beyond Westworld, Michael Crichton, androids, technology, technophobia, Daniel Dinello, hubris. 1. Introduction The 2016 and 2018 HBO series Westworld by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy has spawned renewed interest in the 1973 movie with the same title by Michael Crichton (1942-2008), its 1976 sequel Futureworld by Richard T. Heffron (1930-2007), and the short-lived 1980 MGM TV series Beyond Westworld. The movies and the series deal with androids used for recreational purposes and raise questions about technology and its risks. I aim at an as-yet unattempted comparative analysis taking the narratives at stake as technophobic tales: each one conveys a feeling of threat and fear related to technological beings and environments.

Subverting Or Reasserting? Westworld (2016-) As an Ambiguous Critical Allegory of Gender Struggles
#24 SUBVERTING OR REASSERTING? WESTWORLD (2016-) AS AN AMBIGUOUS CRITICAL ALLEGORY OF GENDER STRUGGLES Miguel Sebastián-Martín Universidad de Salamanca Ilustración || Isela Leduc Artículo || Recibido: 19/07/2020 | Apto Comité Científico: 04/11/2020 | Publicado: 01/2021 DOI: 10.1344/452f.2021.24.9 [email protected] Licencia || Reconocimiento-No comercial-Sin obras derivadas 3.0 License 129 Resumen || Este artículo analiza las tres primeras temporadas de la serie de HBO Westworld (2016-2020), considerándolas una alegoría crítica de las relaciones de género. Se presta especial atención a la construcción autorreflexiva de sus mundos de ciencia ficción y a dos de los arcos narrativos de los personajes principales, las androides femeninas (o ginoides) Dolores y Maeve. Más específicamente, el ensayo consiste en un examen dialéctico de las ambigüedades narrativas de la serie, por lo que su argumento es doble. Por un lado, se argumenta que Westworld está clara y conscientemente construida como una alegoría crítica y que, como tal, sus mundos de ciencia ficción escenifican luchas sociales reales (principalmente, aquellas entre géneros) para narrar posteriormente su (intento) de derrocamiento. Por otro lado, en contra de esta interpretación crítico-alegórica, pero completándola, también se argumenta que Westworld no es una narrativa inequívocamente crítica y que, si vamos a examinar sus potenciales alegóricos, debemos considerar también cómo su realización puede ser obstaculizada y/o contradicha por ciertas ambigüedades narrativas. Palabras clave || Westworld | Ciencia ficción | Metaficción | Alegoría crítica | Género Abstract || This article analyses the first three seasons of HBO’s Westworld (2016-2020) by considering them a critical allegory of gender relations. In so doing, the text pays special attention to the self-reflexive construction of its SF worlds, and to two of the main characters’ arcs, the female androids (or gynoids) Dolores and Maeve.

The Emancipatory Politics of Westworld (2016-)
UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA GRADUATE COLLEGE QUESTIONING THE NATURE OF REALITY: THE EMANCIPATORY POLITICS OF WESTWORLD (2016-) A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By MORGAN JONES Norman, Oklahoma 2021 QUESTIONING THE NATURE OF REALITY: THE EMANCIPATORY POLITICS OF WESTWORLD (2016-) A THESIS APPROVED FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY BY THE COMMITTEE CONSISTING OF Dr. Laurel Smith, Chair Dr. Alison Fields Dr. Darren Purcell © Copyright by MORGAN JONES 2021 All Rights Reserved iv Acknowledgements I’d like to extend thanks to my thesis advisor, Dr. Laurel Smith, for letting me take this short final paper from Gender & Environment and turn it into a fully-fledged Master’s thesis. She has always taken this project seriously, even when I doubted its value (as I often did). Her extensive notes have been invaluable in crafting this document into what it is today. I would also like to thank Dr. Darren Purcell and Dr. Alison Fields who both serve on my advisory committee. The classes I have taken with them helped my conceptualization of what this thesis could be. I hope that their influence is visible in this paper. Another extension of gratitude goes to Dr. Harriet Hawkins for introducing me to geographical aesthetics, and for getting coffee with me in London when her work was the grounding force in my undergraduate capstone. I think it is absolutely necessary to thank my roommate, Holden Dempsey, and my dog, Olive, for being a stellar support system when I was at my most fragile.

The Author Is Dead, Long Live the Author: Negotiating Textual Authority in Westworld, the OA and 13 Reasons Why
. Volume 18, Issue 1 May 2021 The Author is Dead, Long Live the Author: Negotiating textual authority in Westworld, The OA and 13 Reasons Why Itay Harlap, Sapir Academic College and Tel Aviv University, Israel Ariel Avissar, Tel Aviv University, Israel Abstract: This paper examines the ways in which television imagines the relationship between creators and audiences in the contemporary media landscape. This is developed through an examination of the inaugural seasons of three American television dramas that debuted between October 2016 and March 2017: Netflix’s The OA and 13 Reasons Why and HBO’s Westworld; all three series featured the character of a storyteller who was killed within the narrative, in what was presented as an act of collaboration between the storyteller and their audience. We will question whether new participatory modes of media engagement truly engender ‘the birth of the viewer’ through a symbolic ‘killing’ of the creator, or merely serve to reaffirm the authority of the creator, reimagining the author-function as a powerful marketing brand. Keywords: television, audience, fan audience, new media, textual analysis, critical media studies Introduction Over a period of six months in 2016-2017, three American television dramas debuted that featured the character of a storyteller who was killed within the narrative, in what was presented as an act of collaboration between the storyteller and their audience. In the case of The OA (2016-2019), this was the titular protagonist (a character portrayed by series co- creator, Brit Marling), who narrated her life story for a group of characters; on 13 Reasons Page 89 Volume 18, Issue 1 May 2021 Why (2017-2020), it was Hannah Baker (Katherine Langford), who narrated thirteen confessional cassette tape recordings made prior to her suicide; on Westworld (2017-), it was Robert Ford (Anthony Hopkins), founder and creative director of the ‘Westworld’ theme park, who orchestrated the park’s principal narrative.

But on Westworld, a show in which humans and robots coexist in carefully constructed environments, it’s the robots who are trying to pass for human, with help from a little makeup magic.
