Chainmail bikini : the anthology of women gamers / by Newlevant, Hazel,book editor,author,artist.(CARDINAL)598514;
"Chainmail Bikini is an anthology of comics by and about female gamers! Forty cartoonists have contributed comics about the games they’re passionate about -- from video games to tabletop role-playing to collectible card games. The comics in Chainmail Bikini explore the real-life impact of entering a fantasy world, and how games can connect us with each other and teach us about ourselves. Alliances are forged, dice get rolled, and dragons get slain! Chainmail Bikini shows that while women are not always the target market for gaming, they are a vital and thoroughly engaged part of it, and are eager to express their personal take as players, makers, and critics of games."--provided by Amazon.com.A certain kind of story / Molly Ostertag -- Let me do it / Sara Goetter -- Choose your own adventure / Rachel Ordway -- Better together / Hazel Newlevant -- Reticulating splines / Amanda Scurti -- Poppy the gnome and friends! / Katie Longua -- Tales of the crystals / written by Anna Anthropy ; illustrated by Jeremy Boydell -- Gamer grrrl / written by Kae Kelly-Colon ; illustrated by June Vigants -- Pocket worlds / Anna Rose -- Boy or girl? / Kori Michele Handwerker -- Delicious escapism / Sarah Winifred Searle -- Battle for Amtgard / Maggie Siegel-Berele -- LAIR / Natalie Dupille -- Girls who are boys / MK Reed -- Here comes a new challenger / Kinoko Evans -- Pretty paladin critical missy / Becca Hillburn -- Rush of blood / Hazel Newlevant -- Three weekends a year / Kate Craig -- I choose you / written by Merritt Kopas ; illustrated by Mia Schwartz -- Absolute domination / Diana Nock -- A kind of magic / Liane Pyper -- The natural / Sarah Stern -- She's the backbone of this facility / Laura Lannes -- Memoir of a part-time knight / Yao Xiao -- Project white mage / Sera Stanton -- Connections / Caitlin Rose Boyle -- Dream suite / Megan Brennan -- Life +1 / Buntoo -- Hang in there, Peach / Aatmaja Pandya -- Manic pixel dream girl Gaiden: guitar heroine / Elizabeth Simins -- Ikachan / Jane Mai -- Slinging cardboard / Sophie Yanow -- Stand-ins / Annie Mok -- Achievement unlocked / Jade F.

War play : video games and the future of armed conflict / by Mead, Corey.(CARDINAL)356041;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 179-184) and index.The rise of the military-entertainment complex -- Building the classroom arsenal: the military's influence on American education -- "Everybody must think": the military's post-9/11 turn to video games -- America's Army: the game -- All but war is simulation -- WILL interactive and the military's serious games -- The aftermath: medical virtual reality and the treatment of trauma -- Conclusion: America's Army invades our classrooms.A behind-the-scenes look at how the military uses cutting-edge video game technology to train soldiers for new forms of armed conflict, treat veterans, and entice new recruits. Researcher Corey Mead shows us training sessions where soldiers undertake multiplayer "missions" that test combat skills, develop unit cohesion, and teach cultural awareness. He immerses himself in 3-D battle simulations so convincing that they leave his heart racing. And he shows how the military fuels the adoption of games as learning tools--and recruitment come-ons. Mead also details how the military uses games to prepare soldiers for their return to the home front, and to treat PTSD. Military-funded researchers were closely involved with the invention of the Internet; now, as Mead proves, we are at the brink of a similar explosion in game technology. War Play reveals that many of tomorrow's teaching tools, therapies, and entertainments can be found in today's military.--From publisher description.

The simulation hypothesis : an MIT computer scientist shows why AI, quantum physics, and Eastern mystics all agree we are in a video game / by Virk, Rizwan,author.;

Drawing on concepts from computer science, quantum physics, video games, and ancient philosophy, Virk argues that advances in technology point toward a future--and likely present--where fully immersive simulations are possible. By connecting scientific theories with spiritual traditions, the book presents a compelling case that our universe may be more like The Matrix than we think.
