Digital Make-Believe
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-29551-0 (ISBN)
Useful for designers, undergraduates and researchers alike, this new research provide tools for understanding and applying make-believe in various contexts, ranging from digital tools to physical services. It takes the reader through a world of imagination and intuition applied into efficient practice, with topics including the connection of human-computer interaction (HCI) to make-believe and backstories, the presence of imagination in gamification, gameworlds, virtual worlds and service design, and the believability of make-believe based designs in various contexts. Furthermore, it discusses the challenges inherent in applying make-believe as a basis for interaction design, as well as the enactive mechanism behindit.
Whether used as a university textbook or simply used for design inspiration, Digital Make-Believe provides new and efficient insight into approaching interaction in the way in which actual users of devices, software and services can innately utilise it.
Phil Turner is a reader in the School of Computing at Edinburgh Napier University, and research leader of the Make-Believe group. J. Tuomas Harviainen is a Development Manager for the city of Vantaa, Finland and a postdoctoral researcher at Hanken School of Economics. He currently focuses especially on the organizational learning aspects of games, but often ventures into service design, management, information systems, or sexology. He is also one of the three editors of the journal Simulation & Gaming.
