Exploring Radical Approaches in Creative Platforms and Game Design

The chapter delves into a platform where users engage with customizable dolls to create sounds and narratives, contrasting it with the restrictive options in games like World of Warcraft. It analyzes how games can perpetuate societal hierarchies and exclusion, while also examining the liberatory potential of MMORPG structures in allowing players to experiment with identities. The conversation further explores the concept of 'space of appearances' in ancient Greek city-states and its relevance to modern digital platforms, touching on issues of power dynamics and violence in technology production.
