  • COMPARATIVE VIDEOGAME CRITICISM by Trung Nguyen
    COMPARATIVE VIDEOGAME CRITICISM by Trung Nguyen Citation Bogost, Ian. Unit Operations: An Approach to Videogame Criticism. Cambridge, MA: MIT, 2006. Keywords: Mythical and scientific modes of thought (bricoleur vs. engineer), bricolage, cyber texts, ergodic literature, Unit operations. Games: Zork I. Argument & Perspective Ian Bogost’s “unit operations” that he mentions in the title is a method of analyzing and explaining not only video games, but work of any medium where works should be seen “as a configurative system, an arrangement of discrete, interlocking units of expressive meaning.” (Bogost x) Similarly, in this chapter, he more specifically argues that as opposed to seeing video games as hard pieces of technology to be poked and prodded within criticism, they should be seen in a more abstract manner. He states that “instead of focusing on how games work, I suggest that we turn to what they do— how they inform, change, or otherwise participate in human activity…” (Bogost 53) This comparative video game criticism is not about invalidating more concrete observances of video games, such as how they work, but weaving them into a more intuitive discussion that explores the true nature of video games. II. Ideas Unit Operations: Like I mentioned in the first section, this is a different way of approaching mediums such as poetry, literature, or videogames where works are a system of many parts rather than an overarching, singular, structured piece. Engineer vs. Bricoleur metaphor: Bogost uses this metaphor to compare the fundamentalist view of video game critique to his proposed view, saying that the “bricoleur is a skillful handy-man, a jack-of-all-trades who uses convenient implements and ad hoc strategies to achieve his ends.” Whereas the engineer is a “scientific thinker who strives to construct holistic, totalizing systems from the top down…” (Bogost 49) One being more abstract and the other set and defined.

From its conception in 2012, to its exhibition at Carbon Meets Silicon II in 2017, the advances in augmented reality technology led to an interplay between the goal of the creators and the technological realisation of that vision. The art, design and technology involved, generated a reactive process that was mired in external influences as the accessibility to augmented reality became commercially valuable and subsequently restricted. This chapter will be of interest to anyone who wants to understand more about the possibilities, technologies and processes involved in realising mixed reality practice and about the commercial culture that supports it. Keywords: Augmented reality • Sculpture • Extended realities • Transmediation • Embodiment • Virtuality x.1 Introduction The artwork In Darwin’s Garden was developed by the artist Chris Meigh-Andrews with the collaboration and assistance of Rowan Blaik, Head gardener at Down House, and the author, a design educator and researcher at the University of Chester, UK.

  • Halo Engine Ancestry Statistics
    HALO ENGINE ANCESTRY The Halo 2 engine is a direct-line descendant of the 1992 Pathways into Darkness engine originally written by Bungie for 68000 Macs using MPW and C. Not much remains except math functions and overall architecture, but the engine definitely has old roots. The path of descent runs through PiD to Marathon to Myth to Halo. In recent years it has shifted away from being primarily a player-driven renderer to being primarily a world simulation. I’m going to talk about two main philosophies that you can trace through the engine and most of its components. 1. The unified resource model, editing and import tools, general memory layout, filesystem and streaming architecture. 2. Our approach to runtime data organization, memory allocation and world state. STATISTICS • 1.5M lines in 3,624 files for 52.9MB of code (mostly C, some C++, very little asm) • Compile time for clean build of typical development build: 7:39 • Compile time for final shipping build (includes LTCG): 10:06 • Final executable size: 4,861,952 bytes • Total assets under source control: 70 GB not counting localization • Time to load a level, development build: 4 minutes • Time to compile a level for shipping build: 9 minutes • Time for complete build of all binaries on build farm: 18 minutes • Time for complete build of all map resources on build farm: 53 minutes • Size of final game: 4.2 GB • Development time: 34 months • Breakdown of production staff (56): o 17 engineers o 11 environment artists o 8 game artists o 7 designers o 6 animators o 3 producers o 3 sound designers o 1 technical artist • Breakdown of support staff (59): o 2 administrative o 8 web / community o 5 test engineers o 10 test staff o 20 hourly testers o 14 localization testers RESOURCE MODEL We use a unified model for the majority of our game resource data called “tags”.

  • Application for Faculty Development Program PROJECT GRANT
    Application for Faculty Development Program PROJECT GRANT Name: Tamara F. O’Callaghan Department: English Office: LA 547 Office Phone: Ext. 6977 e-mail address: [email protected] Project Title: The Augmented Palimpsest: Engaging Students through AR Encounters with the Past Amount Requested: $4,000.00 Short Project Description: The Augmented Palimpsest is a digital humanities tool that explores how the medium of Augmented Reality (AR) can be used in teaching medieval literature. Using Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, a fourteenth-century poem written in Middle English, the tool will deliver digital enhancements that emerge from the printed page via a smart device. They will provide the reader with linguistic, historical, and cultural contexts, thus giving students greater access to medieval material culture and history. The digital content will include 3D models of medieval artifacts and architecture, large and complex enough to be walked around and viewed from multiple angles. Because the enhancements emerge from the printed page, the tool will maintain a pedagogical emphasis on close reading while encouraging students to develop their skills in textual analysis, critical thinking, interdisciplinary study, and new media literacy. It will improve the reader’s comprehension of the text by preserving the physical and kinesthetic connection to the text. The target audience for the tool includes both undergraduate students, who will encounter The Canterbury Tales in a survey literature course, and high school seniors, who are required to read selections of Chaucer’s poem as part of the National Common Core Standards. Tamara F. O’Callaghan October 1, 2013 signature* date * By typing your name or pasting your signature in the space provided you are allowing this application to be reviewed by the Faculty Benefits Committee for a possible award.
