  • Game Logic in the TV Series the Walking Dead: on Transmedial Plot Structures and Character Layouts
    Open Cultural Studies 2017; 1: 359–368 Research Article Maren Lickhardt* Game Logic in the TV Series The Walking Dead: On Transmedial Plot Structures and Character Layouts https://doi.org/10.1515/culture-2017-0033 Received September 7, 2017; accepted November 20, 2017 Abstract: This paper discusses plot structures and characters of the The Walking Dead TV series which can be traced back to the influence of computer games and gameplay. It shall prove that the series’ narration as a transmedial phenomenon is characterised by ludic logic, although interactive aspects are omitted due to the intermedial change from games to a TV series. The characters’ twin layout as both civilised and archaic, the permanent necessity to make live-or-death decisions, as well as the struggle for survival, simulate aspects of adventure games in particular. The long duration of the series and its repetitive structure rely on PC gamers’ habits. Keywords: convergence culture, zombies, game studies, adventure games, intermediality Post-apocalyptic scenarios challenging humanity and social systems are frequent in the history of film and television (Voigts-Virchow; Hoffstadt), and quite often zombies are the projection screen of disruptive experiences and crises (Proctor; Kleiner; Stiglegger). The Walking Dead makes this into a seemingly interminable series (Platts 294). In eight seasons to date,1 humans fight against the undead, but more important is the fact that different characters experience the most diverse processes of personal affirmation and that different types of socialisation, e.g. democracies, dictatorships, packs of wolves, constitute and destroy themselves. In essence, the series focuses on the simple proposition that human beings are able to do anything in extreme situations (Sulimma), because there is only a thin layer of civilisation protecting us from ourselves and it cannot be taken for granted that it will be easily restored once it has become sufficiently unstable.

  • An Introduction to Morphos
    An Introduction to MorphOS Updated to include features to version 1.4.5 May 14, 2005 MorphOS 1.4 This presentation gives an overview of MorphOS and the features that are present in the MorphOS 1.4 shipping product. For a fully comprehensive list please see the "Full Features list" which can be found at: www.PegasosPPC.com Why MorphOS? Modern Operating Systems are powerful, flexible and stable tools. For the most part, if you know how to look after them, they do their job reasonably well. But, they are just tools to do a job. They've lost their spark, they're boring. A long time ago computers were fun, it is this background that MorphOS came from and this is what MorphOS is for, making computers fun again. What is MorphOS? MorphOS is a fully featured desktop Operating System for PowerPC CPUs. It is small, highly responsive and has very low hardware requirements. The overall structure of MorphOS is based on a new modern kernel called Quark and a structure divided into a series of "boxes". This system allows different OS APIs to be used along side one another but isolates them so one cannot compromise the other. To make sure there is plenty of software to begin with the majority of development to date has been based on the A- BOX. In the future the more advanced Q-Box shall be added. Compatibility The A-Box is an entire PowerPC native OS layer which includes source and binary compatibility with software for the Commodore A500 / A1200 etc.
