  • Carol Shaw Regnes Som Den Første Kvinnelige Videospill-Designeren For
    Carol Shaw (1955 - ) Carol Shaw regnes som den første kvinnelige videospill-designeren for spillprototypen Polo og spillet 3D Tic-Tac-Toe ved dataselskapet Atari i henholdsvis 1978 og 1979. Hun studerte ved Universitetet i California, og ble uteksaminert i 1970 med en bachelorgrad innen elektroteknikk og en mastergrad i Computer Science, et fagområde som hadde et særdeles lavt antall kvinner på den tiden. Hun var ansatt som microprocessor software engineer ved Atari, Inc., et verdenskjent selskap innen spillindus- trien. I 1978 eide Warner Communications både Atari og Ralph Lauren, og Carol Shaw ble tildelt oppgaven med å designe et spill knyttet til markedsføringen av Ralph Laurens nye parfyme “Polo”. Visstnok ble flere prototyper og håndskrevne instruksjoner sendt til varehuset Bloomingdale’s i New York, men det ble ikke noe av kampanjen, og spillet Polo ble ikke lansert. Polo var en spillproto- type som kunne ha vært det første reklamespillet gjennom tidene. Carol Shaw sies å være den første kvinnelige videospill-designeren for dette spillet, og for 3D Tic-Tac-Toe i 1979 for spillkonsollen Atari 2600. Shaw forlot Atari i 1980 for å arbeide for Tandem Comput- ers. Senere startet hun hos Activision, den første uavhengige spill- programvareutvikler og -distributør. Her designet og utviklet hun spillene Happy Trails og River Raid. Sistnevnte videospill ble lansert av Activision i 1982 for Atari 2600, og er Carol Shaws mest kjente spill. River Raid var en stor suksess og over en million spillkasset- ter ble solgt. Senere overførte selskapet River Raid til en rekke ulike konsoller. Carol Shaw utviklet siden flere andre spill før hun gikk av med pensjon i 1990.

  • Imitation-Driven Cultural Collapse
    1 Imitation-driven Cultural Collapse a,* a,* 2 Salva Duran-Nebreda and Sergi Valverde a 3 Evolution of Technology Lab, Institute of Evolutionary Biology (UPF-CSIC), Passeig de la Barceloneta, E-08003, 4 Barcelona. * 5 [email protected]; [email protected] 6 ABSTRACT A unique feature of human society is its ever-increasing diversity and complexity. Although individuals can generate meaningful variation, they can never create the whole cultural and technological knowledge sustaining a society on their own. Instead, social transmission of innovations accounts for most of the accumulated human knowledge. The natural cycle of cumulative culture entails fluctuations in the diversity of artifacts and behaviours, with sudden declines unfolding in particular domains. Cultural collapses have been attributed to exogenous causes. Here, we define a theoretical framework to explain endogenous cultural collapses, driven by an exploration-reinforcement imbalance. This is demonstrated by the historical market crash of the 7 Atari Video Console System in 1983, the cryptocurrency crash of 2018 and the production of memes in online communities. We identify universal features of endogenous cultural collapses operating at different scales, including changes in the distribution of component usage, higher compressibility of the cultural history, marked decreases in complexity and the boom-and-bust dynamics of diversity. The loss of information is robust and independent of specific system details. Our framework suggests how future endogenous collapses can be mitigated by stronger self-policing, reduced costs to innovation and increased transparency of cost-benefit trade-offs. 8 Introduction 9 Comparative studies between humans and other animals emphasize the unique aspects of human learning, including their 1,2 10 capacity for high-fidelity copying .

    Mike Albaugh Interview Interviewed by: Dag Spicer Recorded: November 12, 2010 Mountain View, California CHM Reference number: X5963.2011 © 2010 Computer History Museum Mike Albaugh Interview Spicer: I'm Dag Spicer. We're here at the Computer History Museum on November 12th, 2010. We're here with Mike Albaugh, who is an early and important employee at Atari. Welcome today, Mike. Albaugh: Hi. I might quibble with the important. I've always been what I call a “third guy on the left” kind of guy where there's the picture of pioneering video game designers at Atari and it's, like, you know, it names all of them and then it says, "Well, the third guy on the left might be somebody named Mike Albaugh" because I was there but not in the center. Spicer: Okay. Well, I think you're being modest but we'll go on. Mike, tell us what it was like to work at Atari in the early days. Albaugh: Much as it was in the later days without some of the angst, other than the angst of, you know, are we going to go broke before they sell to Warner? But that happened so soon after I joined that I missed out on the inconvenience of spending the results of my stock because I didn't have any. Fascinating, intelligent, driven people. Certain amount of eccentricity and certainly all the stories of people, like Steve Jobs or Nolan Bushnell point out, but super crew, eccentric, talented, multi-talented, usually, small enough operation that everybody did more than one thing.

  • Entombed: an Archaeological Examination of an Atari 2600 Game
    Entombed An archaeological examination of an Atari 2600 game John Aycocka and Tara Copplestoneb a Department of Computer Science, University of Calgary, 2500 University Drive NW, Calgary, Alberta, Canada b Centre for Digital Heritage, University of York, Department of Archaeology, Heslington, UK Abstract The act and experience of programming is, at its heart, a fundamentally human activity that results in the production of artifacts. When considering programming, therefore, it would be a glaring omission to not involve people who specialize in studying artifacts and the human activity that yields them: archaeologists. Here we consider this with respect to computer games. We draw from the nascent archaeological subarea of archaeogaming to carry out a digital excavation of the code and techniques used in the implementation of Entombed, an Atari 2600 game released in 1982 by US Games. The player in this game is, appropriately, an archaeologist who must make their way through a zombie-infested maze. Maze generation is a fruitful area for comparative retrogame archaeology, because a number of early games on different platforms featured mazes, and their variety of approaches can be compared. The maze in Entombed is particularly interesting: it is shaped in part by the extensive real-time constraints of the Atari 2600 platform, and also had to be generated efficiently and use next to no memory. We reverse engineered key areas of the game’s codeto uncover its unusual maze-generation algorithm, which we have also built a reconstruction of, and analyzed the mysterious table that drives it. In addition, we discovered what appears to be a 35-year-old bug in the code, as well as direct evidence of code-reuse practices amongst game developers.
