An investigation of the embodied engagement between the playing body and the videogame: how player and game incorporate each other.Our bodies engage with videogames in complex and fascinating ways. But, as Brendan Keogh argues in A Play of Bodies, this corporal engagement goes both ways; as we touch the videogame, it touches back, augmenting the very senses with which we perceive. Through an entanglement of eyes-on-screens, ears-at-speakers, and muscles-against-interfaces, we experience games with our senses.
In short, how do we perceive videogames?Keogh works toward formulating a phenomenology of videogame experience, focusing on what happens in the embodied engagement Keogh investigates this merging of actual and virtual bodies and worlds, asking how our embodied sense of perception constitutes, and becomes constituted by, the phenomenon of videogame play.
