31	Does the game Genshin Impact follow the 40 second rule for the frequency of points of interest that is used in The Witcher 3? Krafft, Felix, Wiking, Hugo, Katsoula Johansson, Danai January 2023 (has links) The open world game The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (2015) has been proven to follow a 40 second rule when placing points of interest for players to explore. The developers of the game said in an interview that the rule existed, and this was proven by a study made in 2021 by Cojanu and Jaber (2021). The 40 second rule means that whichever direction the player goes in, they will encounter a point of interest within 40 seconds. This study asks the question if Genshin Impact (2020) is following the 40 second rule. The researchers analyzed footage from four YouTube content creators to see if the rule was implemented in the game. It was found that Genshin Impact (2020) follows the 40 second rule since the points of interest were about 10 seconds apart. How the player decides to play the game slightly impacts the frequency of the points of interest and could be taken into account when testing the 40 seconds rule. It was found that points of interest found were more random at the start of the game and more intentionally found by the player later in the game. / Öppen världs spelet The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt (2015) har visat sig följa en 40 sekunders regel när det gäller placeringen av intressanta platser för spelare att utforska. Spelets utvecklare sa i en intervju att regeln fanns, och detta bevisades genom en studie utförd 2021 av Cojanu och Jaber (2021). Regeln innebär att oavsett vilken riktning spelaren går i så kommer de att stöta på en intressant plats inom 40 sekunder. Denna studie undersöker om Genshin Impact (2020) följer 40 sekunders regeln. Forskarna analyserade videomaterial från fyra YouTube innehållsskapare för att se om regeln implementerades i spelet. Det visades att Genshin Impact (2020) följer 40 sekunders regeln, eftersom de intressanta platserna låg ungefär 10 sekunder ifrån varandra. Hur spelaren väljer att spela spelet påverkar lite grann frekvensen av de intressanta platser och detta kan tas i beaktning när man testar 40 sekunders regeln. Det visade sig att de intressanta platserna var mer slumpmässiga i början av spelet och mer avsiktligt hittade av spelaren senare i spelet.

32	Textmedierade virtuella världar : Narration, perception och kognition / Textually Mediated Virtual Worlds : Narration, perception and cognition Pettersson, Ulf January 2013 (has links) This thesis synthezises theories from intermedia studies, semiotics, Gestalt psychology, cognitive linguistics, cognitive psychology, cognitive poetics, reader response criticism, narratology and possible worlds-theories adjusted to literary studies. The aim is to provide a transdisciplinary explanatory model of the transaction between text and reader during the reading process resulting in the reader experiencing a mental, virtual world. Departing from Mitchells statement that all media are mixed media, this thesis points to Peirce’s tricotomies of different types of signs and to the relation between representamen (sign), object and interpretant, which states that the interpretant can be developed into a more complex sign, for example from a symbolic to an iconic sign. This is explained in cognitive science by the fact that our perceptions are multimodal. We can easily connect sounds and symbolic signs to images. Our brain is highly active in finding structures and patterns, matching them with structures already stored in memory. Cognitive semantics holds that such structures and schematic mental images form the basis for our understanding of concepts. In cognitive linguistics Lakoff and Johnsons theories of conceptual metaphors show that our bodily experiences are fundamental in thought and language, and that abstract thought is concretized by a metaphorical system grounded in our bodily, spatial experiences. Cognitive science has shown that we build situation models based on what the text describes. These mental models are simultaneously influenced by the reader’s personal world knowledge and earlier experiences. Reader response-theorists emphasize the number of gaps that a text leaves to the reader to fill in, using scripts. Eye tracking research reveals that people use mental imaging both when they are re-describing a previously seen picture and when their re-description is based purely on verbal information about a picture. Mental spaces are small conceptual packets constructed as we think and talk. A story is built up by a large number of such spaces and the viewpoint and focus changes constantly. There are numerous possible combinations and relations of mental spaces. For the reader it is important to separate them as well as to connect them. Mental spaces can also be blended. In their integration network model Fauconnier and Turner describe four types of blending, where the structures of the input spaces are blended in different ways. A similar act of separation and fusion is needed dealing with different diegetic levels and focalizations, the question of who tells and who sees in the text. Ryan uses possible worlds-theories from modal logic to describe fictional worlds as both possible and parallel worlds. While fictional worlds are comparable to possible worlds if seen as mental constructions created within our actual world, they must also be treated as parallel worlds, with their own actual, reference world from which their own logic stems. As readers we must recenter ourselves into this fictional world to be able to deal with states of affairs that are logically impossible in our own actual world. The principle of minimal departure states that during our recentering, we only make the adjustments necessary due to explicit statements in the text. intermediality virtual worlds possible worlds fictional worlds storyworlds reader response semiotics Gestalt psychology cognitive linguistics cognitive psychology cognitive poetics reading process mental models situation models schemata scripts narratology diegetic levels focalization transactional theory iconicity immersion aesthetic illusion gaps concretization mental places integration network models blending conceptual metaphors Intermedialitet läsprocess mentala bilder mentala modeller möjliga världar fiktionsvärldar virtuella världar mentala platser semiotik kognitionsforskning kognitiv semantik kognitiv lingvistik kognitiv poetik narratologi fokalisering diegetiska nivåer luckor schemata scripts estetisk illusion ikonicitet
33	Dr. Eleine Mad Jacobsson, Madeleine January 2021 (has links) Dr. Eleine Mad är Madeleine Jacobsssons talesperson för dom vetenskapliga och paranormala upptäckter som uppstår i hennes världar. Hon beskriver innehåll, teknik och estetik utifrån ett kategoriseringssytem där konsten delas upp som olika typer av komponenter och därefter avkodas dessa allteftersom. För att förstå intuitionens inblandning i arbetsprocessen omförvandlas den till tre separata roller av en Sökare, Samlare och Myntare. Med rollerna försöker jag beskriva på vilka sätt som intuitionen är till gagn eller av förödelse för det konstnärliga arbetet. Sagan om M handlar om en grodlik karaktär, Delop, som lämnar sin hemplanet för att uppsöka andra världar. I sitt sökande hittar Delop ett folkslag vars syn och levnadssätt skiljer sig från hennes erfarenheter av “verkligheten” såsom hon lärt sig att överleva i den. / Dr. Eleine Mad is Madeleine Jacobsson's spokesperson for the scientific and paranormal discoveries that arise in her worlds. She describes content, tecniques and aesthetics based on a categorization system where art is divided into different types of components and then decoded as they go. To understand the intuition's involvement in the work process, it is transformed into three separate roles by a Seeker, Collector and a Myntare(In swedish language the one who is a "myntare" -is verbally declaring a concept or term). With these roles I try to describe in what ways intuition is beneficial or devastating to the artistic work. The story of M is about a frog-like character, Delop, who leaves the home planet to seek out other worlds. In her search, Delop finds a world whose views and lifestyles differ from her experiences of "reality" as she learned to survive in it. / <p>Recorded sound and image material of the presentation is available for private use.</p> mjjgkjacb longing desire pang aj worlds shark genital symbol female sexuality worlds content the tale of M Doctor M mad life artifact animals figures emotional states red existentialism epicenter dog mythology folk beer whistle closeness aversions seeker collector myntare stagnation hibernation intuition sausage soup majdalakdemlsmikopa Delop Cow Lice snake hare sheep ödel oktor threat antipathy empathy fear performance function allow belief clitoral heroes monsters pink components situation dual nature euphoria bic-pens reality violence desert sea AQB brain holistics social codes self fairy tale space blue horse hell gotland dizzying flourish anthropomorphic jewels death plaster spiders commit survive frog whale bear purpose communication wild fascination animal incomparable monster ugly disturbed perspective marauder green symbolism who suffer anger reverence gods recast transformation yellow pry entrance interest alternative insignificant rigid position of power as disease real added disgusting wake up doubt mourn pray images horror plants rock stop mjjgkjacb längtan åtrå pang aj världar haj världsallt könssymbol kvinnlig sexualitet världarnas innehåll sagan om M Doktor M mad livet artefakt djur figurer känslomässiga tillstånd röd existentialism epicentrum hund mytologi folköl vissla närhet aversioner sökare samlare myntare stagnation dvala intuition korvsoppa majdalakdemlsmikopa Delop Ko Löss orm hare får Ödel Oktor hot antipati empati rädsla föreställning funktion tillåta tro klitorala hjältar monster rosa världar komponenter situation dubbla natur eufori bic-pennor verkligheten våld öken hav A.Q.B hjärna holistisk sociala koder självet sagorymd blå häst helvete Gotland vimmelkantig florera antropomorf juveler döden plåsterspindlar vägvisare begå överleva groda val björn syfte kommunicering vild fascination djurisk makalös vidunder ful störd perspektiv marodör grön symbolism vem genomlida ilska vördnad gudar omstöpt sammandrabbningar transformation gul bända ingång intresserar alternativ oväsentlig stel maktposition som sjukdom verkligt tillsatt äcklig vakna tvivla sörja be urbilder skräck växter rock stopp Arts Konst
