Rulemaking as Play: A Transdisciplinary Inquiry about Virtual Worldmaking
Direct linkDirect link
Zhenzhen Qi – ProQuest LLC, 2023
In the age of computing, we rely on software to manage our days, from the moment we wake up until we go to sleep. Software predicts the future based on actualized data from the past. It produces procedures instead of experiences and solutions instead of care. Software systems tend to perpetuate a normalized state of equilibrium. Their application…
