Over the years, we added a variety of summits on different topics, such as Game Studies, Game Development, and Film &#038; Games. Looking back on 12 conference editions within the last 16 years, we are proud to have turned the conference into a thriving outlet for ideas from different disciplines. At the Clash of Realities, theory and practice come together, enriching each other and offering opportunities for interdisciplinary exchange and dialogue.<\/br><br \/>\nSadly, all good things have to come to an end someday. The good news is that we were able to attract a star line-up for the 2022 farewell conference: Among the 50 renowned international experts from academia, science &#038; research, economics, politics, and the game industry are <strong>Tracy Fullerton<\/strong> (University of Southern California), <strong> Frans M\u00e4yr\u00e4<\/strong> (Tampere University), <strong> Janet Murray<\/strong> (Georgia Institute of Technology), <strong> Nathalie Pozzi<\/strong> (Parsons School of Design), and <strong> Eric Zimmerman<\/strong> (New York University) and many more! Some will join us on-site at the CGL, and some will contribute online.<\/br><br \/>\nFor everyone who wants to join us for this last edition of the conference, be it online or on-site, we look forward to meeting you and experiencing the unique Clash of Realities spirit one last time!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"one withsmallpadding ppb_text\" style=\"padding-top:0px !important;text-align:left;padding:40px 0 40px 0;background-color:#999999;color:#ffffff !important;\" >\n<div class=\"standard_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"page_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"inner\">\n<div style=\"margin:auto;width:70%\">\n<div class=\"one_third \" style=\"\">\n<strong>WHERE<\/strong><br \/>\nCologne Game Lab<br \/>\nSchanzenstr. 28<br \/>\n51063 Cologne<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.de\/e\/13th-clash-of-realities-conference-live-stream-zoom-tickets-418061472117\">+ keynotes live streamed<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"one_third \" style=\"\">\n<strong>WHEN<\/strong><br \/>\n13th Clash of Realities<br \/>\nSeptember 28-30, 2022<br \/>\nCET time zone<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"one_third last \" style=\"\">\n<a class=\"button\" \nhref=\"#speaker\">View Speakers<\/a><\/br><br \/>\n<a class=\"button\" \nhref=\"#timetable\">View Schedule<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"one\" >\n<div class=\"one_half_bg parallax\" style=\"background-image:url(https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/cor22_keyvisua_stilll0002.jpg);height:550px;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"one_half_bg\" style=\"padding:45px;\">\n<h2 class=\"ppb_title\" style=\"color:#e108d3;\">Summits<\/h2>\n<div class=\"ppb_header_content\">\n<p><strong>September 28, 2022 &#8211;

When women appear as mothers in games, they have a difficult position, because the heroic role as protagonist is rarely granted to them. In some games, they are already long dead at the beginning of the game&#8217;s storyline and thus no longer present. In other cases, they are relegated to an unimportant supporting role that is neither significant for the narrative nor for the game&#8217;s progress. If they have a greater importance in the game plot, it seems, they fill the less glorious roles as damsel in distress or, at the other extreme, as the evil mother. <\/br><\/p>\n<p>In this contribution I want to show two examples of mothers in games, taking a closer look at Sophia Lamb from Bioshock 2 (2010) and Kara from Detroit Become Human (2018). While Sophia Lamb, in her desire to build utopia, used her own daughter Eleanor for psychological experiments, stands for an evil matriarch, the humanoid android Kara appears as a protector and as caring for Alice, although difficult topics such as domestic violence are also addressed in her role. In doing so, connections to medially and historically shaped images of mothers will be made and an analysis of the respective mother figure, on a visual and narrative level, will take place.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Room 211 &amp; via zoom<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2702\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/6_JoanneAskaHeadshot_01-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Joanne Popi\u0144ska\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">14:00&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;15:00<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Keynote: Staying True to an Impactful Vision in Immersive Storytelling<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_speakers\">By&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/speaker\/joanne-popinska\/\">Joanne Popi\u0144ska<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;XR filmmaker<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<div id=\"excerpt_2702\" class=\"session_content_extend hide session_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_excerpt\">Awarding-winning XR Director Joanne Popi\u0144ska will host a lecture about her work in immersive documentary storytelling, with a special focus on how female characters are represented.

Among the many games with a plot hinging upon the investigation of a crime, it can be said that there is no total lack of representations of women as criminals and\/or investigators. However, the two games published in the past few years, <i>Her Story<\/i> (2015) and <i>Overboard!<\/i> (2021), take an unorthodox approach to both whodunnits and the role of female characters within them. Both games have female characters as the perpetrator and the investigator of the crime, and in both cases, the story of the crime is only told from a woman\u2019s perspective. Particularly because of the duality of their roles and perspectives, the women in these two games are multidimensional protagonists, as opposed to those who are secondary characters portrayed as damsels in distress, or nurturing and redeeming figures in many other video games. While the contrast between the roles of women in these titles is especially noteworthy, analyses of female video game characters, especially those controlled by players, are crucial to understand how representations of gender within the medium have been changing and can change in the future.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>In this talk, I aim to contribute to the debate surrounding present and future representations of women within contemporary video games by taking a close look into the female protagonists in <i>Her Story<\/i> and <i>Overboard!<\/i>. As the selected titles are both detective games, I will also discuss the relationship between the portrayal of these female characters and the gameplay elements. In order to do this, I will use Clara Fern\u00e1ndez Vara\u2019s critical analysis of game design in the <i>Sherlock Holmes<\/i> video game series 1 and make a comparison between the character actions in the series with the iconic male detective and the two games my paper focuses on.<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Room 211 &amp; via zoom<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_1976\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/ChristinaGruebler_1280x-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Christina Gr\u00fcbler\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">10:40&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;11:05<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>\u201cThe Last of Men?

Controversially, the game features a cutscene in which a newly introduced character, a muscular, gender-non-conforming woman named Abby, kills Joel, the male hero of <i>The Last of Us<\/i> and father figure to the main character, Ellie. This plot device was quickly interpreted by some audiences as the symbolic annihilation of the white, heterosexual patriarch by a \u2018monstrous\u2019 woman. They \u2018review bombed\u2019 the game and expressed their contempt, particularly for having to play as Abby, through a plethora of memes and videos.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>This presentation starts by investigating why Abby specifically became \u2018memefied\u2019 as the ultimate villain and how her womanhood was rendered abject, paying particular attention to the role of transmisogynistic affect. Analyzing discussions of <i>The Last of Us Part II<\/i> on Reddit and YouTube through a lens of queer theory and critical heterosexuality studies, I explore how gender and sexuality are policed in user-generated online cultures. I will talk about the gamification of online hate speech; or how gendered desires are playfully choreographed by making a game of misogyny.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>In particular, I discuss the paradoxical relationship between players\u2019 desires for female representation and the simultaneous disgust and hatred of female avatars. Why do users express a deep-seated desire for particular, gendered experiences of play? What is desirable about \u2018playing straight\u2019, or embodying the male, masculine, white hero? This talk also workshops how gender in the game is racialized and asks to what extent the backlash against <i>The Last of Us Part II<\/i> can be explained by anxieties regarding its exploration of post-apocalyptic, queer kinship and cross-race modes of survival.<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Room 211 &amp; via zoom<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_1970\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Wendy_Zelling-Portrait-hell_1280x-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Wendy Zelling\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">10:15&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;10:40<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>E-Girls Are Ruining My Life: Revisiting the Tension Between Female Adolescence and the Boyish Medium<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_speakers\">By&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/speaker\/wendy-zelling\/\">Wendy Zelling<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;Goethe University Frankfurt am Main<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<div id=\"excerpt_1970\" class=\"session_content_extend hide session_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_excerpt\">Only recently, video games seem to have started experimenting more frequently with mundane settings, consequently allowing authentic adolescent matters to be tackled. Therefore, they finally join common youth media in their portrayal of young heroes and heroines seeking their identities by adapting their own interactive version of the coming-of-age genre.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>However, as the medium is still largely considered a male space in terms of its creators and audience, representation of female adolescents in video games is not only scarce in comparison with other youth media, but also its authenticity can vary greatly depending on developer, target group and genre. Heavily summarised, adolescent girls are either in constant need of protection by a playable father figure and pose as the palpable embodiment of the player\u2019s moral compass in shooters, or, if they are playable characters, fulfil or forcefully deny prejudices in interactive movies or fiction. At the same time, even well-meant representation of gaming girls in youth media is oftentimes limited to female adolescents who appear as the stereotypical unlike other girls-character, ultimately reinforcing the concept of video games as a boyish medium, and thus rendering girls as outsiders or intruders. From the perspective of the gaming community, debates such as #GamerGate, the harassment or humiliation by elevation of young female players and review bombings in case of supposedly unlikable female characters, have proven this sentiment to be still very much prevalent. Even more precarious, this stance might delay positive change and authentic portrayal.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>Going forward, how can this tension between female adolescence and boyish medium be resolved from the perspective of youth media, media studies and fan discourse? What should future authentic representation look like and how can it be achieved despite the repercussions? And, most importantly, how could medium and audience benefit from this?<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Room 211 &amp; via zoom (speaker not on site)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_1962\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Julieta-Lombardelli_1280x-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Julieta Lombardelli\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">12:30&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;12:55<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Sheroes in Games.

Girls designing digital games: networking, training, advocacy is a two years work-in-progress project (Nov 2020 &#8211; Nov 2022) that aims to bridge the gender gap in videogames addressing the necessity of working towards a more inclusive videogame industry in three main areas: content, production and environment. For this we understand that it is mandatory to engage girls and their families before entering college in order to show them that videogames can be a career option and that their participation and voice is crucial if we want to build a better and mature industry, more diverse, egalitarian and richer in content.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>We created a community of practice (CoP) to promote the transfer and amplification of knowledge building in an open and collaborative way. To encourage knowledge sharing across different countries, we designed and built a toolkit in the format of a semantic wiki that we named: Sheroes in Games wiki. There we gathered the different aspects that are needed to be taken into account when designing educational activities for young girls and the particular need of building lobby strategies that demonstrates the impact on girls of the current state of the games industry when it comes to gender equity and women representation.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>This paper summarizes the results of this strategy that generates spaces to encourage concrete solutions based on the transfer of knowledge to eliminate gender inequality in the disciplinary field of video games, in addition to proposing possible alternatives to generate the sustainability of a CoP that provides methodologies to ensure gender equality from education. <\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>Sheroes is run by the Goethe-Institut in Argentina in partnership with educational institutions, Women in games associations and studios in Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Peru as well as Venezuela \u200b\u200band it is funded by the Federal Foreign Office of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Taking those investigations as a basis, specifically the one conducted by Erving Goffman when studying advertisement, I would like to bring this discussion to the discipline of game design. More than character design or narrative aspects, I want to analyze how the mechanics, gameplay, and player experience are designed for female<br \/>\ncharacters. <\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>In his studies, Goffman, coined seven categories in an attempt to show how women were portrayed in advertising. The idea here is to adapt those categories to game design aspects, thus achieving a comprehensive summary of how female characters are designed in games, as much as Goffman did for advertising. The study will also help to understand how games remediate advertising in those aspects, by examining if Goffman\u2019s findings are reflected in game design.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Room 211 &amp; via zoom<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul id=\"2-wed\" class=\"scheduleday_wrapper themeborder tab_content hide\">\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2767\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Joachim-Friedmann_1280x-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Joachim Friedmann\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">10:00&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;10:15<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Welcome &#038; Introduction<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_speakers\">By&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/speaker\/joachim-friedmann\/\">Joachim Friedmann<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;ifs internationale filmschule k\u00f6ln,&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/speaker\/andreas-gassler\/\">Andreas G\u00e4ssler<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;International Film School Cologne (ifs),&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/speaker\/jana-neef\/\">Jana Neef<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;ifs internationale filmschule k\u00f6ln<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<div id=\"excerpt_2767\" class=\"session_content_extend hide session_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_excerpt\">Short presentation of summit topic &#038; speakers.<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Open Space<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2573\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/EugeneMapondera_1280x-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Eugene Ramirez Mapondera\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">10:50&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;11:20<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Reinforcing Self Determination and Identity Through New-Media &#038; Fiction in Africa<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_speakers\">By&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/speaker\/eugene-ramirez-mapondera\/\">Eugene Ramirez Mapondera<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;Kay Media Africa | Comexposed<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<div id=\"excerpt_2573\" class=\"session_content_extend hide session_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_excerpt\">The impact of apartheid on African culture has had an immeasurable consequence on the Identity of the modern-day African. Both Literature and media dating back to the end of the second world war have upheld the ideals of the settlers while the unique nuances of African storytelling were lost. Colonialism\u2019s suppression of oral tradition and practices meant that numerous African mythologies have since been erased or distorted. The post-colonial era we live in today might further threaten the survival of traditional African storytelling techniques through the proliferation of content from the global north. <\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>Be that as it may, an opportunity has arisen for the modern African storyteller to rekindle the essence of ubuntu by harnessing the possibilities introduced by film, video games, immersive VR experiences and more. The purpose of this presentation is to explore how the African psyche can find a path to realignment with its original and untainted self, by using today\u2019s digital options for storytelling. Since society can mirror literature, an opportunity now exists where greater self-determination can be reached through the elevation of a sophisticated, afro-futuristic, re-imagining of Africa across genres. Case studies can be drawn from the social impact of games developed by Kiro&#8217;o Games (2016) and the pan-African graphic novel by Tinodiwa Makoni, entitled Gambanyika (2017). <\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>This expose seeks to account for the successful uses of new media in Africa as a tool to counter an ever-growing identity crisis and loss of self-determination in this generation of African consumers of pop culture.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Open Space &amp; via zoom (speaker not on site)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2467\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/TatjanaSamopjan_1280x-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Tatjana Samopjan\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">14:25&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;16:30<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Fire in the Eyes.

Chantal Mouffe (2005) warned about a political sphere in which the political is played out in moral categories as opposed to being a forum of conflicting alternatives and open debates.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>As Seargeant (2020) pointed out stories are pinned around two emotions: hope and fear. In the current (post) pandemic world dominated by ongoing military confrontations in Europe the dominant emotion for stories is fear.<\/br><\/br><\/p>\n<p>More than 500 years ago Thomas More demonstrated with his book \u201cUtopia\u201d that hope for a better society can be articulated in a fictional story and impact social change. In the aftermath of the two World Wars the ideas of blueprint utopias and metanarratives of hope became scrutinized, deconstructed and ultimately rejected by the dominant discourse. If universal utopias have become impractical and discredited intellectual constructs what are the stories that can give a shape to hope? What kind of stories can promote social equality and political alternatives from a consequentialist and from a deontological point of view? This paper will argue that the future stories of hope will be articulated through very specific local contexts, delineate a clear idea of political agency and concrete future images. As Lewis Mumford (1922:184) wrote, underlining the eu-topos (the good place) aspect of Utopia: \u201cIt should not surprise us therefore if the foundations for eutopia were established in ruined countries; that is, in countries where metropolitan civilization has collapsed and where all its paper prestige is no longer accepted at paper value.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Open Space &amp; via zoom (speaker not on site)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2457\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_icon\"><span class=\"ti-timer\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">14:15&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;14:25<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Coffee Break<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2455\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/JMartin_1280x-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"J.

They take place in a range of applications such as games, chatbots for customer service and finance, simulations for education and healthcare, remote communication and (social) VR.  Yet, their interactivity and movement is limited. We as humans are very receptive of non-verbal behaviors when we engage in social and emotional interactions. In order to interact with virtual humans naturally, they should also be equipped with non-verbal communication skills such as facial expressions, gestures and gaze. As they take place in more interactive applications such as the metaverse, the demand to automatically generate their behavior on-the-fly will increase. This talk will discuss the role of AI and machine learning algorithms to generate the behavior and movement of virtual humans. I will present the state-of-the-art and some of our research work on interactive virtual humans.<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Open Space<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2675\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_icon\"><span class=\"ti-timer\"><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">13:00&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;14:30<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Lunch Break<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2673\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/jesse-schell-8-150x150.png\" alt=\"Jesse Schell\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">14:30&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;15:30<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Keynote: The Metaverse.

An NFT of a unique sword, for instance, can provide a player with unique skills and benefits in the game. The NFT, in other words, can be deeply embedded in the structure of the game as an interactive medium.<\/br><\/br> <\/p>\n<p>In this talk, I will show different examples of the tokenization of gaming and also connect this to other trends, such as the creator economy, virtual influencers, and the wider Metaverse, which combines these trends. Ultimately, I argue that the Metaverse is formed by different media, texts, and materialities but should also be studied through the lens of monetization. At its heart, these strategies around tokenization capitalize on the affect and emotions of consumers. While blockchain technology has values such as decentralization and democratization, we should also be wary of the new platform economy that is taking shape around this technology. It comes with new forms of exploitation, bias, and centralization, which promise innovation but require a critical, ethical and social discussion. <\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location

However, even though games are allegedly \u201cunfinished media\u201d invite ecological imagination (Bendor 2018, 146), \u2018ecogames\u2019 as well as popular games with ecological motifs (e.g. Frostpunk or Spirit Island) or ecology-oriented expansions (e.g. The Sims: Eco Lifestyles) are usually played as \u2018products\u2019, which easily induces simulation resignation (Bogost 2008) and limits (co-)creative engagement, i.e. the capacity of these games to address the current \u201ccrisis of [\u2026] the imagination\u201d (Ghosh 2016, 9).<\/br><\/br><br \/>\nThe first part of the keynote examines how players are remediating nature photography, an epistemically as well as materially significant eco-practice (Cronin 2011; Drake 2014), in games like Red Dead Redemption 2 or Death Stranding[1], but also acknowledges the creative and institutional constraints that still limit its potential as a replicable heuristic for climate education. <\/br><\/br><br \/>\nThe second part shifts the focus towards the modification of analogue and digital games to explore ecological motifs, an approach tentatively called ecomodding (Bohunicky 2017; Werning 2021), e.g. in terms of how it facilitates the acquisition and active performance of environmental literacy\/ecoliteracy (McBride et al. 2013). It conceptualizes these modifications as part of an ongoing eco-critical discourse between players and developers, and outlines how specifically modifying popular analogue games as boundary objects can harness schools but also families as small-scale \u201csustainability communit[ies] of practice\u201d (Benn, Edwards, and Angus-Leppan 2013).<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Room 211 &amp; via zoom<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2327\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AndreaHubert_1280x-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Andrea Hubert\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">10:45&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;11:05<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>What\u2019s an Environmental Game to You?

What about <i>Stardew Valley<\/i> or <i>Sonic: the Hedgehog<\/i>?<\/br><\/br><br \/>\nThe way players process information in games, including any potential environmental messages, depends on their experience of the game, their attitudes, moods, or knowledge of the subject. We will look at examples from the mainstream and from the more \u201cniche\u201d areas of specifically environmental games production and try to evaluate their strengths and limitations in intentionally attempting to create reflection on environmental themes.

Research on the impact of these portrayals is limited and has traditionally focused almost exclusively on character tropes as found in television and film. However, representations of mental illness in games are broader than just characters and have a unique potential to impact social understanding and cultural perceptions around mental health topics. This presentation will tackle some of the most common tropes, explore their cultural relevance and impact, and provide recommendations for game developers on how to avoid tropes, ditch stereotypes, and create better representations of mental illness in games. <\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Room 211 &amp;

But what if your game and its users defy common wisdom? What if you design an indie game, for one audience \u2026 then bring that game to art venues patrons \u2026 and then offer the same game to teachers and students as an educational experience? What if your audiences range from game-literate indie players; to literature lovers and educators; to art patrons; to middle and high school students? <\/br><\/br><br \/>\nThis has been the case for the award-winning \u201cWalden, a game\u201d project, which is now available on platforms ranging from PC\u2019s, to consoles, to Web, to Chromebooks &#8211; targeting new players for each of these platforms and scenarios. Maintaining the integrity of the original vision for this open-world experimental narrative game based on the classic book by Henry David Thoreau, while bringing the game to an ever-wider set of players, is a design challenge that the Walden team has had to face as we have worked to expand and support access to this experimental game project over its varying seasons of development. <\/br><\/br><br \/>\nThis talk will explore the strategies we have employed while working with teachers, content experts, curriculum designers, evaluators, curators, exhibit designers, and game-based learning experts to reach the widest possible audience for this evergreen experience.<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location themeborder\">\n<div class=\"session_location_label skin_color\">Where<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_location_content\">Keynote Tent &amp; live streamed on vimeo (speaker not on site)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"themeborder \">\n<div class=\"session_content_wrapper expandable\" data-expandid=\"excerpt_2509\">\n<div class=\"session_speaker_thumb\"><img src=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/kelli-dunlapNEU-150x150.png\" alt=\"Kelli Dunlap\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_start_time\">II Thursday 17:15&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;18:00<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_title\">\n<h6>Creating an Ethical Code for Designing Psychological Trauma Games<\/h6>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"session_speakers\">By&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/clashofrealities.com\/2022\/speaker\/kelli-dunlap\/\">Kelli Dunlap<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;Pixel Perfect Psychotherapy | Take This<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br class=\"clear\"\/><\/div>\n<div id=\"excerpt_2509\" class=\"session_content_extend hide session_content_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"session_content has_speaker_thumb\">\n<div class=\"session_excerpt\">Games allow us to experience challenging psychological and mental health topics in a way that players actually want to engage with. As games continue to explore the depth and breadth of human emotional processing &#8211; tackling feelings like shame, guilt, and regret &#8211; it is essential that developers have a code for ethical design around this kind of content. <\/br><\/br>Whether a game explores vulnerable populations or discusses topics traditionally considered stigmatized (i.e. mental illness) or traumatic (i.e. assault), game designers have an ethical obligation to prioritize player safety. In this talk, clinical psychologist and professor of game design Dr. Kelli Dunlap adapts psychological ethical standards to create guidelines for developing emotionally heavy content.<\/div>\n<div
