Discussion towards pervasive game design
methodology

• 1 - interacting with contents
• 2 - interacting with people
• 3 - converting physical movements into game
  movements
• 4 - converting physical gestures into game actions

(1) Design options interacting with contents
To writing
interaction
From reading
To unfaithful and divergent
From faithful and related
contents
13
(2) Design options interacting with people
close
Co-presence
distant
autonomous
dependant
Interaction

(3) Design Options converting physical movements
into game movements

(4) Design Options converting physical gestures
into game actions

• The player
• is turned into a mouse that moves in space in
  PLUG traces of players passage to a display //
  hints
• is turned into pliers that pick, move and drop
  in PLUG moving virtual playing cards around
• captures and records contents or events (discreet
  or continuous) in PLUG archiving a collection in
  the phone
• augments the contents / erases (removes the
  contents) on the display (not explored in PLUG)
