Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

»Ludic Images« explores the dynamic interplay of moving images, games, and interactive media. In the wake of the digital turn, playful and game-related aesthetics have emerged as central forces in shaping contemporary image cultures—from cinematic cut scenes and augmented reality games to virtual reality environments and mobile interfaces. This volume investigates the technological, aesthetic, and narrative dimensions of ludic images, connecting game design, digital scenography, and interactive media practices with approaches from media theory, philosophy, art and design, perceptual studies, semiotics, computer graphics, and image science. By examining the sensory, cultural, and cognitive conditions of playful images, »Ludic Images« contributes to a deeper understanding of how games, interactivity, and digital imagery transform our modes of perception, narration, and participation in the postmodern image era.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
