要旨 Summary

Digital games are sites where surveillance and control are being
represented and negotiated (in medium specific ways). While these games
are often critical towards surveillance, they also run the risk of
perpetuating the power structures inscribed in the surveillance images
they depict. The lecture will give an overview of a research project at
the University of Tübingen on the topic. The aim of this project is to
identify different types of surveillance images in digital games with
the help of qualitative and quantitative analyses. In addition, the
project will create an ethical framework that can serve game designers
and other practitioners to find new ways of displaying surveillance
topics and create an alternative imagery of surveillance.
