Abstract

Modes of representation in digital games are explored in terms of game aesthetics, structure and logic. Concepts related to 'world-making' are articulated through three art works created by the author - Idea-ON!, Iconica, and Semiomorph. The final work, Semiomorph, combines the theory of 'semiotic morphism' with gameplay to create a digital game that generates blended realities.
