  • 4. Wargaming the Middle East: the Evolution of Simulated Battlefields from Chequerboards to Virtual Worlds and Instrumented Artificial Cities
    4. Wargaming the Middle East: The Evolution of Simulated Battlefields from Chequerboards to Virtual Worlds and Instrumented Artificial Cities Janina Schupp Abstract Shortly after the end of a tank combat during the Gulf War, a team of US Army historians, scientists, and engineers flew to Iraq to gather detailed data of the battle. The collected information was used to create an exact virtual simulation of the combat for training. The mapping capability – offered by the resulting simulation game 73 Easting – to visualize the battlefield from any position and point in time revolutionized military exercises. With ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, these digital training cartographies are now linked to real bodies and vehicles through digital and mobile technologies during live training in artificially constructed villages. This chapter analyses this evolution and critically investigates the growing ‘gamification’ ensuing in these representations of Middle Eastern battlefields. Keywords: Wargames, Middle East, interactive battlespace, live simulations In war the experienced soldier reacts in the same way as the human eye does in the dark: the pupil expands to admit what little light there is, discerning objects by degrees, and finally seeing them indistinctly. By contrast, the novice is plunged into the deepest night. […] It is immensely important that no soldier, whatever his rank, should wait for war to expose him to those aspects of active service that amaze and confuse him when he first comes across them. (Clausewitz 1989, p. 122) Strohmaier, A. and A. Krewani (eds.), Media and Mapping Practices in the Middle East and North Africa: Producing Space. Amsterdam: Amsterdam University Press, 2021 doi 10.5117/9789462989092_ch04 96 JANINA SCHUPP The act of playing at war is deeply engrained in human history and has per- sisted to the present day in both professional and hobby culture.

    A Important Health Warning: Photosensitive Seizures A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in video games. Even people with no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. Symptoms can include light-headedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, momentary loss of awareness, and loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents, watch for or ask children about these symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely to experience these seizures. The risk may be reduced by being farther from the screen; using a smaller screen; playing in a well-lit room, and not playing when drowsy or fatigued. If you or any relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing. © 2019 The Codemasters Software Company Limited (“Codemasters”).

  • Digital Gaming Industry in Global-Local Crossings: Comparative Study of UK, China and Brazil
    Digital Gaming Industry in Global-Local Crossings: Comparative Study of UK, China and Brazil Abstract Clustering is a common phenomenon in digital gaming industry where businesses can benefit from local concentration of talents, spill-over events, resources recycling activities, formal or informal networks formed (Pilon and Tremblay 2013; Ruggill et al. 2016). In addition, digital gaming industry also possess a born-global nature (Gomez and Gonzalez-Perez 2015). Reflecting on the global-local structure, a conceptual framework on digital gaming industry ecosystem is proposed in this paper. A comparative analysis is performed against the digital gaming industry in UK, China and Brazil. As the initial stage of the project, the analysis focuses on the similarities and differences of the digital gaming industry from perspectives such as policy, culture, funding, talents, market, infrastructure and other supports. Keywords: Entrepreneurial Ecosystem, Digital Gaming, Business Growth, UK, Brazil, China 1. Introduction When video game Grand Theft Auto V came out in September 2013, it quickly broke six Guinness world records including the highest revenue generated within 24 hours ($815.7 million) and the fastest entertainment property to reach $1 billion in sales (within three days of releasing) which were previously held by blockbuster movies like The Avengers and Avatar (Lynch 2013). This achievement is a manifestation of the growth in the digital gaming industry: since mid-1980s, the industry has grown annually by between 10% and 15% (Zackariasson and Wilson 2010; Marchand and Hennig-Thurau 2013; Newzoo 2018). In comparison, the estimated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) between 2018 and 2023 for global entertainment and media industry, which the digital gaming industry is part of, is at 4.3% (PwC 2019).

    ii Copyright 2016 By Susan Forsyth iii Funding Acknowledgement This dissertation was supported by: • The University of California, San Francisco Graduate Dean’s Health Science Fellowship • The Eugene Cota Robles Doctoral Fellowship • Dissertation award from the Tobacco-Related Disease Research Program (TRDRP), grant #22DT-0003. iv Acknowledgments I would first like to thank the participants who gave freely of their time and stories. Without them this dissertation would never have been written. I knew almost nothing about video games before I started this and their patient explanations of things most obvious was greatly appreciated. I would also like to thank my advisor, Dr. Ruth Malone. In 2008, when I sat in my first graduate class, I was not sure if I even belonged. Dr. Malone encouraged me and helped me believe in myself as a person and as a scholar. She opened doors for me that I did not know even existed. Ruth has mentored me for the last eight years, and for this I am honored and grateful. I would also like to thank my dissertation committee, Dr. Ruth Malone (chair), Dr. Kit Chesla and Dr. Roberta Rehm. Their gentle and careful guidance has seen me safely through one of the most challenging journeys of my life. I would like to thank my qualifying exam committee, Dr. Christine Kennedy (chair), Dr. Ruth Malone, Dr. Roberta Rehm and Dr. Susan Kools. Through your expertise and direction this project was shaped into what it is today. I would also like to thank Dr. Lisa Bero and Dr. Donna Odierna. I joined their reasearch group for ten weeks and stayed five years.
