how mobile games contribute to the transhumanist imagination by exploring themes of human enhancement and augmented reality (AR). The study examines how mobile AR games, such as Pokémon Go, offer new forms of interaction between players and their physical environments, effectively blurring the boundaries between the digital and physical worlds. Drawing on transhumanist philosophy and media theory, the paper explores the implications of AR technology for redefining human perception, cognition, and embodiment. It also addresses ethical concerns related to the over-reliance on AR technologies and the potential for social disconnection.</p> <a href="https://blog-057535265972.mit-edu.top/post/3972154680" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/18.jpg" alt="Self-Determination Theory and Its Implications for Game Design in Educational Contexts" title="Self-Determination Theory and Its Implications for Game Design in Educational Contexts" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Steven Mitchell</strong> <span>2025-02-05 published post</span> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="post-entry d-md-flex small-horizontal mb-5"> <div class="me-md-5 thumbnail mb-3 mb-md-0"> <a href="https://blog-057535265972.mit-edu.top/post/9876350124"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/7.jpg" alt="The Role of Emotional Contagion in Cooperative Multiplayer Mobile Games" title="The Role of Emotional Contagion in Cooperative Multiplayer Mobile Games" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-9876350124.mit-edu.top/post/9876350124/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-05</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-057535265972.mit-edu.top/post/9876350124">The Role of Emotional Contagion in Cooperative Multiplayer Mobile Games</a></h2> <p class="info">This research examines the intersection of mobile games and the evolving landscape of media consumption, particularly in the context of journalism and news delivery.
