Community: The Festival Theme Since its beginnings in 1967, the Festival of American Folklife has approached research and presenta- tion of traditional culture from three perspectives. These are: the perspective of style, focusing on the manner in which a traditional item is made or performed and which marks that piece as a creation within a particular tradition; the perspective of identity, highlighting the ideational content of a perform- ance that expresses a particular ethos or approach to group life; and the perspective of community, ex- amining the relationships among people that support and are ex- pressed by folklife performances. We have selected the last of these, community, for particular emphasis in this year's Festival and in the four annual Festivals that will fol- low. The community that we explore and celebrate has many forms. It is the cohesive, closely knit, geo- graphically discrete community of ethnic and tribal groups. It is the occupational community that as- sembles for eight hours a day at a particular worksite. It is the com- munity whose members may be separated by oceans and may never have met, but whose communal feelings are evoked when a shared linguistic and cultural heritage is realized. It is the community of age-mates that gathers to learn and play. And finally, it is the family community that shares its daily sustenance together. We explore the contours and meanings of these communities. We celebrate them, and we ask you to Festival of American Folklife Program 1 Smithsonian Insli(u(ion 1978 join us in experiencing and ap- © Editor: Jack Saiuino preciating their value.

  • Lucasarts and the Design of Successful Adventure Games
    LucasArts and the Design of Successful Adventure Games: The True Secret of Monkey Island by Cameron Warren 5056794 for STS 145 Winter 2003 March 18, 2003 2 The history of computer adventure gaming is a long one, dating back to the first visits of Will Crowther to the Mammoth Caves back in the 1960s and 1970s (Jerz). How then did a wannabe pirate with a preposterous name manage to hijack the original computer game genre, starring in some of the most memorable adventures ever to grace the personal computer? Is it the yearning of game players to participate in swashbuckling adventures? The allure of life as a pirate? A craving to be on the high seas? Strangely enough, the Monkey Island series of games by LucasArts satisfies none of these desires; it manages to keep the attention of gamers through an admirable mix of humorous dialogue and inventive puzzles. The strength of this formula has allowed the Monkey Island series, along with the other varied adventure game offerings from LucasArts, to remain a viable alternative in a computer game marketplace increasingly filled with big- budget first-person shooters and real-time strategy games. Indeed, the LucasArts adventure games are the last stronghold of adventure gaming in America. What has allowed LucasArts to create games that continue to be successful in a genre that has floundered so much in recent years? The solution to this problem is found through examining the history of Monkey Island. LucasArts’ secret to success is the combination of tradition and evolution. With each successive title, Monkey Island has made significant strides in technology, while at the same time staying true to a basic gameplay formula.

  • Producing Adaptive Music for Non-Linear Media
    PRODUCING ADAPTIVE MUSIC FOR NON-LINEAR MEDIA Lassi Kähärä Bachelor’s thesis May 2018 Degree Programme in Media & Arts Music Production ABSTRACT Tampereen ammattikorkeakoulu Tampere University of Applied Sciences Degree Programme in Media & Arts Music Production Lassi Kähärä: Producing Adaptive Music for Non-Linear Media Bachelor's thesis 42 pages May 2018 As non-linear media such as videogames and interactive applications are getting more popular each year and interactivity is being implemented into other media, a need for non-linear adaptive music is growing. Traditionally a linear medium, music, needs to adapt to the actions the user decides to take in these interactive experiences. Adaptivity has been a vital part of videogame scores for years, but the techniques are shifting as new ways to compose and implement music for videogames are being developed con- stantly. In the thesis history of adaptive music, techniques non-linear music composers, adaptive music techniques and means of implementation were discussed and compared with ex- amples. A comprehensive look into the various possibilities of composition and imple- mentation of score music for videogames was given. A score for a virtual reality puzzle game was composed and implemented utilizing Ableton Live and Audiokinetic Wwise software to create an immersive and adaptive score. The combination of Live and Wwise worked well together, supporting the adap- tive fashion of the game score. Using Wwise was a learning experience and through experimentation and testing an interactive music system suitable for the project was created. Key words: adaptive music, videogame music, interactive music, audiokinetic wwise, ableton live CONTENTS 1 INTRODUCTION ......................................................................................................

Its forms spanned from being systems with limited 3D capabilities to complete and complex Web-Based Virtual Worlds. The advent of the 3D Web provided great opportunities to museums by giving them an innovative medium to disseminate collections’ information and associated interpretations in the form of digital artefacts, and virtual reconstructions thus leading to a new revolutionary way in cultural heritage curation, preservation and dissemination thereby reaching a wider audience. This audience consumes 3D Web material on a myriad of devices (mobile devices, tablets and personal computers) and network regimes (WiFi, 4G, 3G, etc.). Choreographing and presenting 3D Web components across all these heterogeneous platforms and network regimes present a significant challenge yet to overcome. The challenge is to achieve a good user Quality of Experience (QoE) across all these platforms.
