Interrogating Augmented Tech Mediation in Mobile Gaming App Pokémon GO!

Our presentation seeks to address current pitfalls within AR mobile game design, and offer up a set of guidelines for future game designs with the hopes of moving towards the production of games that account for an intersectional understanding of identity with regards to personal risk in particular spaces. To do so, we draw on post-humanist understandings of technological mediation, human geography, and the social ecology of public space. ☞ Please see live copy of slides here: https://bit.ly/2MfLfYg
