Od Karola

Understanding Comics Scott McCloud -Podstawowy: Dekonstrukcja i Analiza Komiksu jako medium, Kopalnia wiedzy o “Narracji Wizualnej”

Convergence Culture Henry Jenkins Podstawowy.Bardzo fajna książka o ewolucji mediów, ich przenikaniu i wzajemnym uzupełnianiu prowadzącym do tworzenia uniwersów w ramach wielu środków przekazu.

“Transmedia Storytelling: Implicit Consumers, Narrative Worlds, and Branding in?Contemporary Media Production.”Zaawansowany.-http://ijoc.org/index.php/ijoc/article/viewFile/477/336.

Człowiek - istota społeczna Elliot Aronson. Podstawowy - “Jeden z najlepszych podręczników psychologii społecznej.” Bardzo prosto napisany, masa przykładów i wyczerpujących opisów poszczególnych eksperymentów. Bardzo dobra książka do poszerzenia sobie horyzontów. Jak komuś “siądzie” temat to mogę szczerze polecić “Jak myślimy?” Dewey’a - Krótkie, treściwe, ale też bardzo trudne w czytaniu (przynajmniej jak dla mnie).

Edit: Z tego wszystkiego zapomniałem o : Morfologia Bajki W. Propp - Zaawansowany, Ale po sieci krążą bardzo dobre opracowania książki podsumowujące spostrzeżenia autora.

100 Things I Learned in Architecture School

“Architectural Approach To Level Design” C. Totten - Koles po studiach architektonicznych i wykladowca wkleja teorie architektury do level designu. Czasem ciekawie, czasem kompletnie mija sie z celem. Glownie sa to zasady LD ubrane w inne nazwy. Nie polecam jezeli zrobiliscie juz kilka leveli tzn. nie jestescie beginners i macie chociaz male pojecie o procesie poznawczym przestrzeni i planowaniu przestrzennym, a jezeli nie macie to polecam “Psychologia Srodowiskowa” Bell, Baum, Greene, ktora jest o wiele ciekawiej napisana. Ksiazke polecano mi jeszcze na studiach arch. krajobrazu, gdzie percepcja krajobrazu to spory deal ;)

  • “Game Feel”, Swink - Przyjemna ksiazka o tzw. juicingu i jak postrzegamy feel: flow, detal, latency itd. Fajnie porzadkuje wiedze o tym jak gracz, a raczej “nie-developer” postrzega gre majac w dupie jak co dziala, ale jak to widac na ekranie i czuc na controllerze.

  • “Game Mechanics - Advanced Game Design”, Adams, Dormans - Ksiazke mozna podzielic na 2 czesci. Pierwsza, teoretyczna z wieloma przykladami. Swietnie opisana, bardzo polecam. Druga czesc to konkretne sytuacje w grze i wszystkie mechaniki rozpisane atom po atomie, bardziej nudnawe i troche meczace.

Teraz czytam “Visual Storytelling” - glownie kinematografia, ale duuzo dobrych rzeczy dla LD, osietleniowcow i env artystow i “Man, Play, Games”.
