Analog forms of rule-based play (ludus) would hardly be conceivable without dice, cards, and game boards. In the act of free play (paidia), children as well as adults transform simple objects into multifaceted toys in an almost magical way. Even digital play is suffused with material culture: Games are not only mediated by technical interfaces, which we access via hardware and tangible peripherals. They are also subject to material hybridization, paratextual framing, and processes of de-, and re-materialization. The contributors examine this playful materiality from various angles.Bild und Bit SeriesPlayful MaterialitiesDigital mediaComputer Games.Culture.Digital Media.Materiality.Media Aesthetics.Media Studies.Media.Play.Popular Culture.Digital media.302.231AP 15963rvkBeil Benjamin1980-1259995Freyermuth Gundolf S.1955-1221305Schmidt Hanns Christian1221306Rusch Raven1259996BMBF Fördervorhaben 16TOA002fndhttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fndNjHacINjHaclBOOK996487172703316Playful Materialities2965553UNISA
