| dbo:abstract | Gonzalo Frasca (Montevideo, 1972) és un dissenyador de jocs i investigador acadèmic especialitzat en serious games i videojocs polítics. El seu bloc, Ludology.org, va ser una publicació important a principis dels 2000 pels investigadors acadèmics que estudien els videojocs (vegeu ludologia per més informació). Durant molts anys, Frasca, juntament amb , també va publicar Watercoolergames un blog sobre serious games. Frasca va néixer a Montevideo, Uruguai, on va establir , un estudi de videojocs. És Cap de disseny a DragonBox, un estudi de pedagogia noruec que produeix videojocs dedicats a l'aprenentatge de matemàtiques. Frasca És també professor a la Universidad ORT Uruguai. Dins la teoria dels jocs, Frasca pertany al grup de "ludòlegs" que consideran als videojocs simulacions basades en regles. Veuen als videojocs com el primer estimulador audiovisual per a les mases, el que significa un nou paradigma de consum i producció audiovisual. Els estudis de Frasca són influenciats pel treball del catedràtic Espen J. Aarseth. Des del 2004 Frasca ha estudiat els jocs al Center for Computer Games Research al IT University of Copenhagen. Va rebre el seu doctorat en estudis del videojoc l'Agost del 2007. El seu joc més famós és el joc artístic, september 12, una resposta als atacs de l'11 de Setembre. Es basa en l'argument polític que una resposta militar directa només augmentarà la probabilitat de més atacs terroristes a occident. Malgrat ser polèmic al seu llançament, ara és reconegut com un exemple notable de videojoc polític i newsgame (un terme encunyat per Frasca per referir-se a un videojoc basat en notícies del moment). El 2009 va rebre el Lifetime Achievement Award per la Knight Foundation. (ca) Gonzalo Frasca (born 1972) is a game designer and academic researcher focusing on serious and political videogames. His blog, Ludology.org, was cited by NBC News as a popular designation for academic researchers studying video games (see ludology for more information). For many years, Frasca also co-published Watercoolergames with Ian Bogost, a blog about serious games. Frasca was born in Montevideo, Uruguay, where he established Powerful Robot Games, a video game studio. He is Chief Design Officer at DragonBox, a Norwegian pedagogy studio which produces math-learning videogames. Frasca is also a professor at Universidad ORT Uruguay. In video game theory, Frasca belongs to the group of "ludologists" who consider video games to be simulations based on rules. They see video games as the first simulational media for the masses - which means a paradigm shift in media consumption and production. Frasca's game studies are influenced by the work of Norwegian game academic Espen J. Aarseth. Beginning in December 2004, Frasca studied games at the Center for Computer Games Research at the IT University of Copenhagen. He received his PhD in Videogames studies in August 2007. His most famous game is the art game, September 12, a response to the September 11 attacks. It is based on the political argument that a direct military response will only increase the likelihood of further terrorist attacks on the West. In spite of being controversial at its launch, it is now recognized as a notable early example of both political videogame and newsgame (a term Frasca is credited with coining to refer to a videogame based on real, newsworthy events). In 2009 it received a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Knight Foundation. (en) |
