Commercialisation Strategies

Gels de printemps, canicules et sécheresses, incendies et goûts de fumée, intenses variations d’une année à l’autre, et même au cours d’une saison… les défis climatiques se multiplient et le monde du vin est impacté à tous les niveaux, de la vigne au verre.

Location-based games emerged in the early 2000s following the commercialisation of GPS and artistic experimentation with ‘locative media’ technologies. Location-based games are played in everyday public spaces using GPS and networked, mobile technologies to track their players’ location. This book traces the evolution of location-based gaming, from its emergence as a marginal practice to its recent popularisation through smartphone apps like Pokémon Go and its incorporation into ‘smart city’ strategies. Drawing on this history and an analysis of the scholarly and mainstream literature on location-based games, Leorke unpacks the key claims made about them.
