Seminarium med Professor Bernard Perron, ledande forskare inom spel och skräck

Välkommen till seminarium med Professor Bernard Perron, onsdag den 20/12 k l 10.15-12.00 i NIC 0541 ( K3-Studio), Niagara. Nordenskiöldsgatan 1.

Abstract:
As we could easily think that a generic study of horror in the video game would be simple because an idiom was coined in mid-1990s to characterize these games – the “survival horror”, things are more complicated than that. Based on the research, and even on the title of my forthcoming book The World of Scary Video Games: A Study in Videoludic Horror, this seminar will reflect on the ways we talk about this video game genre. It will underline once again how the notion of genre needs to be viewed as a discursive phenomenon aiming over time to encompass the temporary crystallization of a common cultural consensus.
