Videogames have always depicted representations of American culture, but how exactly they feed back into this culture is less obvious. Advocating an action-based understanding of both videogames and culture, this book delineates how aspects of American culture are reproduced transnationally through popular open-world videogames. Playing American proposes an analytic focus on open-world videogames' "ambient operations" and traces practices of "playing American" through the stages of videogame development, gameplay, and reception. Three case studies – concentrating on the Grand Theft Auto, Watch Dogs, and Red Dead Redemption franchises, respectively – highlight different figurations of "playing American." Thematic foci range from public discourses on systemic racism and neoliberal capitalism to the justification of real-world surveillance practices and to the reconfiguration of the Western in the digital age. Playing American provides those interested in either videogames or American culture with a fresh angle and new concepts regarding its subject matters. It demonstrates that videogames are agents of cultural reproduction that do distinct cultural work for American culture in the twenty-first century.
Human-Technology Interaction
Delves into the evolving landscape of human-technology interaction (HTI), encompassing various facets from design and implementation to psychological impacts and strategic considerations. The book begins with foundational theories in HTI and strategic design, progressing to practical applications and implications across multiple domains such as human-robot interaction, augmented and virtual reality, and the Internet of Things. Subsequent chapters explore the integration of AI and machine learning with human processes, the psychological effects of technology, and user experience design. The authors address specialized areas including assistive technologies, game design, and the fusion of art, science, and technology and discuss the role of technology in learning and education, and urban sustainability through digital innovations. Concluding with a look at future trends like transhumanism, Human-Technology Interaction - Interdisciplinary Approaches and Perspectives offers a comprehensive analysis of how technologies shape human experiences, behaviours, and societal development.
