  • Deconstructing LEGO
    Deconstructing LEGO “In this insightful and engaging analysis of LEGO and its culture, Jonathan Rey Lee (de)constructs the ‘brick’ as a site teeming with cultural resonance. Exam- ining the LEGO phenomenon through such interlocking perspectives as peda- gogy, dramatism, digital culture, transmedia studies, and concepts of play, Lee’s work embraces the building block mentality for scholars, fans, and AFOLs alike. Accessible and erudite, Lee proves he isn’t just playing around.” —Paul Booth, Professor, DePaul University, United States Jonathan Rey Lee Deconstructing LEGO The Medium and Messages of LEGO Play Jonathan Rey Lee Cascadia College Bothell, WA, USA University of Washington Seattle, WA, USA ISBN 978-3-030-53664-0 ISBN 978-3-030-53665-7 (eBook) https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-53665-7 © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020 This work is subject to copyright.

  • Narrativizing LEGO in the Digital Age by Aaron Smith, Aaron.Smith50
    Beyond the Brick: Narrativizing LEGO in the Digital Age By Aaron Smith, [email protected] *Draft, please do not quote or cite without permission *The following is a personal research project and does not necessarily reflect the views of my employer Conference Paper MiT7 Unstable Platforms – The promise and peril of transition 13-15th May 2011 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Boston, MA Introduction Fantasylands, supernatural environments, and galaxies far far away– LEGO looks a lot different today than when it was patented as a red studded brick in 1958. The physical toy remains an intricate part of the LEGO business, of course, but now so are video games, amusement parks, movies, television shows, and online entertainment. The growing reliance on media communication and media technologies, a process many scholars have dubbed ―mediatization,‖ has powerful implications for LEGO‘s long- established and valued ―system of play.‖1 One effect has been the increasingly important role of narrative within this system—what Stig Hjarvard calls ―narrativization.‖2 Indeed, LEGO box sets increasingly specify narrative roles, conflicts, mythologies, and character bios as part of their intended play. Traditional LEGO building and designing continues to flourish, but while the material toys used to compose the entirety of the LEGO system, they now function as elements within a larger media ―supersystem.‖3 This paper focuses on LEGO‘s strategies for adapting to the digital age by leveraging story worlds around their products and encouraging

    The quest for the Masks of Power has grown more dangerous with each day. The amazing feats of the Toa have drawn the attention of Makuta, who is preparing to unleash the power of the Rahi – and the natural forces of the island itself – against the six heroes. The fate of Mata Nui and all who dwell upon it may be decided this day... I am the shape in the shadows. I am the darkness in the heart of Mata Nui. I live in the dread stories told by the Turaga around the village fires. The dark creatures –- the Manas, the Rahi –- are my SERVANTS. I am Makuta. Those who dare to challenge me…as the Toa have done… …will be deFEATED. One the jaws of Muaka will dispel. Lewa’s safety is an illusion. Lewa will be the first to fall, and then–- No! Rahi cannot but what is this?? be defeated! Lewa may have escaped… but Gali, Toa of water, is surely doomed. The creatures are closing in. Great Beings, grant me strength… Who dares defy the will of Makuta? You!-- So. The Toa now work together...? Tahu! Gali, behind you! Then they can FALL together as well. Welcome, Toa of water. Do not be afraid–- your body is safe in the ocean’s embrace. Only your mind has journeyed here to behold your future. We are what What is you and the other this place? Who Toa shall become. When are you? each of you has found all the Great Masks of Power, then shall you be ready to join together and defeat Makuta.

Toys are more often discussed by scholars who emphasize the idea of playfulness (notably Sutton- Smith), but who, in turn, tend to exclude games from their theories. Indeed, Gregory Bateson even suggests that games might not be playful at all. 2 In this chapter, I will try to bridge the two spheres of games and play through the vehicle of the Lego franchise, which ranges from analog toys to digital games.

    Untitled-3 1 7/27/05 10:35:09 AM TM As the struggle against the Bohrok continues, the Toa discover that everything they thought they knew about the swarms may have been wrong. Kopaka leads Tahu to the lair of the strange creatures – the one place no Toa would ever have dreamed of looking. Meanwhile, the Matoran have made a startling discovery of their own about the true nature of the Bohrok. Will this knowledge help them to defend their villages from the swarms? With the krana collected, the heroes of Mata Nui are at last ready to learn the secret of stopping the swarms. New dangers, new mysteries, and new challenges are waiting… but can anything prepare them for what lurks below? The truth is beginning to hatch... and nothing will ever be the same.
