Playing as Rebellion: Games Channel Civil Disobedience and Work within Politics

Update: 2024-10-07

Description

In this episode of GS-E, we dive into a fascinating intersection of play and protest. What does it mean to play as an act of rebellion? We’ll explore how parkour, skateboarding, and skywalking defy authority and embrace civil disobedience, both in the real world and in video games. Using examples from popular parkour and skateboarding games, we break down how risky-play challenges societal norms and authority figures. Based on a paper by Professor Lindsay Grace.
