  • Unifying Game Ontology: a Faceted Classification of Game Elements
    Unifying Game Ontology: A Faceted Classification of Game Elements Michael S. Debus This dissertation is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) at the IT University of Copenhagen. Title: Unifying Game Ontology: A Faceted Classification of Game Elements Candidate: Michael S. Debus [email protected] Supervisor: Espen Aarseth Examination Committee: Dr. Hanna Wirman Dr. Aki Järvinen Prof. Frans Mäyrä This research has received funding from the European ResearchCouncil (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (Grant Agreement No [695528] – MSG: Making Sense of Games). Resumé I mindst hundrede år er spil blevet defineret og klassificeret. I de sidste to årtier er der dog opstået en forøget forskningsmæssig interesse for hvad spil er og består af. For at at udvikle en mere entydig terminologi for spil og deres bestanddele, undersøger denne afhandling spillets ontologi i to henseende. Med en tilgang inspireret af Wittgenstein, belyser jeg de forskellige betydninger der knytter sig til udtrykket ’spil’. Jeg fremlægger en ikke-udtømmende oversigt over fem underliggende ideer, der tjener som områder hvor man kan finde spils såkaldte familie-ligheder: spil som genstande, forløb, systemer, holdninger og ud fra deres udvikling og distribution. Jeg introducerer dernæst en række ontologiske begreber, for at kunne eksplicitere den forståelse af spil, som tages i anvendelse i denne afhandling. Spil er ’specifikker’ – samlinger af anonyme ’partikulærer’ – som enten kan være materialiseret (som genstande) eller instantieret (som forløb). Jeg vil dernæst, ud fra en ludologisk tilgang, undersøge spils underliggende formelle system. En række begreber fra biblioteksvidenskaben danner rammen for en analyse af de distinktioner der bliver anvendt i seksten forskellige spil-klassificeringer.
