Perplex City & Making ARGS Pay | Transmythology. I wasn’t able to attend last night’s Transmedia meetup in New York City, but I was able to catch most of it via a video stream very kindly provided by hosts Aina Abiodun and Mike Knowlton . The main event featured was a presentation from Transmedia writer Andrea Phillips , which has been stored online at livestream.com . I recommend you tune in, because her talk is extremely insightful and presents a lot of information that will soon be essential knowledge for online content creators.
Here are some brief thoughts: Perplex City As Andrea states, Perplex City can be considered a creative triumph. A hugely ambitious project, it fostered a passionate online community as well as live-action engagement with the story. Andrea’s story about the helicopter is incredible and really demonstrates the scope and theatrical quality of the project. Andrea mentioned that there were five writers on board for most of Perplex City’s run, including Dan and Adrian Hon of Sixtostart . Like this: Like Loading...

QR Code Stencil Generator and QR Hobo Codes. Yep, it’s a QR code stencil generator! The F.A.T. Lab is pleased to present QR_STENCILER, a free, fully-automated utility which converts QR codes into vector-based stencil patterns suitable for laser-cutting.
Additionally, we present QR_HOBO_CODES, a series of one hundred QR stencil designs which, covertly marked in urban spaces, may be used to warn people about danger or clue them into good situations. The QR_STENCILER and the QR_HOBO_CODES join the Adjustable Pie Chart Stencil in our suite of homebrew "infoviz graffiti" tools for locative and situated information display. ABOUT THIS PROJECTQR codes are a form of two-dimensional barcode which are widely used to convey URLs and other short texts through camera-based smartphones.

Accompanying the QR_STENCILER are the QR_HOBO_CODES (see below), a set of 100 lasercutter-ready QR stencil designs created with the QR_STENCILER software. Examples of 19th- and 20th-Century "hobo signs". De la difficulté dans les jeux. AR Games. The MIT Teacher Education Program, in conjunction with The Education Arcade, has been working on creating "Augmented Reality" simulations to engage people in simulation games that combine real world experiences with additional information supplied to them by handheld computers. The first of these games, Environmental Detectives (ED), is an outdoor game in which players using GPS guided handheld computers try to uncover the source of a toxic spill by interviewing virtual characters and conducting large scale simulated environmental measurements and analyzing data.
This game has been run at three sites, including MIT, a nearby nature center, and a local high school. Early research has shown that this mode of learning is successful in engaging university and secondary school students in large scale environmental engineering studies, and providing an authentic mode of scientific investigation. Summify - Why Angry Birds is so successful and popular: a cognitive teardown of the user experience. Angry Birds. The Extraordinary, Underground Museum of Soviet Arcade Games. This article amazes the hell outta me. I love reading on how different countries and cultures shared popular past times like video games and movies, and all the little "quirks" that would seem weird to average Western-born people. This was somewhat similar to how it was in Korea during the 80's for me as a kid. We did get all of the popular arcade games from the US and Japan. The US games weren't messed with all that much, but some of the Japanese arcade games were changed to suit Korean culture (mostly the language barrier).
From what I read, and was told, that was the reason why so many Japanese arcade games in the 1980's had default English as their language, or was developed at the same time with Japanese and English text. For video games, it was just the easy process of taking Japanese text and changing it to Korean, or just taking the default English language and sell the arcade games through Korean video game import publishers. Gameful | Home. What Can We Say With Games? I suppose earlier generations had to sit through all this huffing and puffing with the invention of television, the phone, cinema, radio, the car, the bicycle, printing, the wheel and so on, but you would think we would learn the way these things work, which is this:everything that’s already in the world when you’re born is just normal;anything that gets invented between then and before you turn thirty is incredibly exciting and creative and with any luck you can make a career out of it;anything that gets invented after you’re thirty is against the natural order of things and the beginning of the end of civilisation as we know it until it’s been around for about ten years when it gradually turns out to be alright really.
Douglas Adams: How to Stop Worrying and Learn to Love the Internet Somebody born in 1980, when videogames first began to appear in people’s homes in the form of the Atari 2600 or the ZX Spectrum, has never known a world without videogames.

C’est quoi un Alternate Reality Game (ou Jeu en Réalité Alternée) ? « Fais-Moi Jouer ! « Un jeu en réalité alternée (Alternate Reality Game – ARG) est un jeu multimédia, qui de manière délibérée entretient le flou entre les expériences perçues lors du jeu et hors du jeu », nous dit l’article Wikipédia en Français.
Vous trouverez plus de détails sur la english version. Nous sommes assez perplexes quant à la formalisation d’idées aussi larges que les nouvelles formes de jeu et de collaboration utilisant les technologies les plus innovantes mais aussi les plus vielles. Les ARG sont sans doute le cheval de Troie dans lequel se cachent diverses formes de recherches du plaisir.
Les premiers Alternate Reality Games ont été produits par des chefs de projets marketing visionnaires de chez Microsoft. Ils ont été conceptualisés par des chercheurs en jeu. En tant que joueurs passionnés et futurs créateurs, nous voyons alors plutôt les ARG comme des expériences qui sensibilisent le public et les professionels du divertissement sur de nouvelles contrées. The Very Important List Of PC Games, Part 5/5 | Rock, Paper, Shotgun#more-51089. By Kieron Gillen on February 18th, 2011 at 1:00 pm. As a retired don in the great university of the bedroom, I wasn’t expecting to be aroused by Professor Rossignol. Later, I was also disturbed when he woke me up, demanding that I spout some waffle on the importance of some games none of the current faculty really felt able to talk about with confidence. Of course, with my famous arrogance, I felt confident to talk confidently about anything, and damn the fellow who says otherwise.
The rest of the faculty’s chosen games may be found here. Oh, and I see those Intel chaps sponsored the whole thing! They certainly do have a sense for the purposes of ballyhoo. These games are very important. They are arranged in an order which I thought made some kind of narrative sense after I hammered this list out.

Augmented reality games (ARGs) are often interesting in theory—and sometimes in practice—but just as often they require far too much work to actually be enjoyable. But with built-in cameras, GPS, and sensors, modern smartphones make ARGs much more accessible. You don't need any extra gear, just the phone you have in your pocket. To help promote the DVD release of the second Paranormal Activity film, game developer Ogmento has released an iPhone app called Paranormal Activity: Sanctuary, which takes elements of FourSquare and combines them with the board game Risk.
And then it throws the whole thing straight to hell. Ars spoke with Ogmento CEO and co-founder Ori Inbar about the unique game and why the iPhone is a solid platform for ARGs. Ogmento has been around since 2009 and has released several mobile apps and games. "It fits very well with the idea of things that are happening in the real world that we usually don’t see," Inbar told Ars. "And the social aspect of it is critical.
