SUMMARY:Games Studies Circle
DESCRIPTION:Mario is Mario is Mario is you. \nLearning games is sometimes notoriously fiddly. That is why harder games rely upon players’ knowledge of simpler games. This arguably goes so far as to produce a certain type of a person\, the — dreaded and allegedly perpetually angered — gamer. Ultimately\, we might find that not everyone feels at home when playing games. \nVideogames seem to be the most reliant upon pre-grown gamers. But is there an analogous construct in other types of games? Is it desirable to have alternatives to the gamer type? What does the person need to know and be able to do to engage with different types of games? How does the playing/gaming affect those engaging in it? We will be exploring potential ways of answering all these questions. \nOur discussion will be centred around the fourth chapter of Stephanie Boluk’s and Patrick LeMieux’ Metagaming: Playing\, Competing\, Spectating\, Cheating\, Trading\, Making\, and Breaking Videogames. We will present the material for the discussion but you are welcome to read the chapter beforehand. \nLocation: Nerd Alert\, Bulharská 924/26 101 00 Praha 10 – Vršovice

SUMMARY:Dawn by Octavia E. Butler
DESCRIPTION:Lilith Iyapo has just lost her husband and son when atomic fire consumes Earth—the last stage of the planet’s final war. Hundreds of years later Lilith awakes\, deep in the hold of a massive alien spacecraft piloted by the Oankali—who arrived just in time to save humanity from extinction. They have kept Lilith and other survivors asleep for centuries\, as they learned whatever they could about Earth. Now it is time for Lilith to lead them back to her home world\, but life among the Oankali on the newly resettled planet will be nothing like it was before. \nThe Oankali survive by genetically merging with primitive civilizations—whether their new hosts like it or not. For the first time since the nuclear holocaust\, Earth will be inhabited. Grass will grow\, animals will run\, and people will learn to survive the planet’s untamed wilderness. But their children will not be human. Not exactly.

SUMMARY:On the Calculation of Volume I by Solvej Balle
DESCRIPTION:Tara Selter\, the heroine of On the Calculation of Volume\, has involuntarily stepped off the train of time: in her world\, November eighteenth repeats itself endlessly. We meet Tara on her 122nd November 18th: she no longer experiences the changes of days\, weeks\, months\, or seasons. She finds herself in a lonely new reality without being able to explain why: how is it that she wakes every morning into the same day\, knowing to the exact second when the blackbird will burst into song and when the rain will begin? Will she ever be able to share her new life with her beloved and now chronically befuddled husband? And on top of her profound isolation and confusion\, Tara takes in with pain how slight a difference she makes in the world.
