The Life and Letters of William Sharp and "Fiona Macleod"
No full text"William Sharp (1855-1905) conducted one of the most audacious literary deceptions of his or any time. Sharp was a Scottish poet, novelist, biographer and editor who in 1893 began to write critically and commercially successful books under the name Fiona Macleod. This was far more than just a pseudonym: he corresponded as Macleod, enlisting his sister to provide the handwriting and address, and for more than a decade ""Fiona Macleod"" duped not only the general public but such literary luminaries as William Butler Yeats and, in America, E. C. Stedman.
Sharp wrote ""I feel another self within me now more than ever; it is as if I were possessed by a spirit who must speak out"". This three-volume collection brings together Sharp’s own correspondence – a fascinating trove in its own right, by a Victorian man of letters who was on intimate terms with writers including Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Walter Pater, and George Meredith – and the Fiona Macleod letters, which bring to life Sharp’s intriguing ""second self"".
With an introduction and detailed notes by William F. Halloran, this richly rewarding collection offers a wonderful insight into the literary landscape of the time, while also investigating a strange and underappreciated phenomenon of late-nineteenth-century English literature. It is essential for scholars of the period, and it is an illuminating read for anyone interested in authorship and identity.

Interaction Design: Beyond Human-Computer Interaction
No full textAccomplished authors, Preece, Rogers and Sharp, have written a key new textbook on this core subject area. Interaction Design deals with a broad scope of issues, topics and paradigms that has traditionally been the scope of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Interaction Design (ID). The book covers psychological and social aspects of users, interaction styles, user requirements, design approaches, usability and evaluation, traditional and future interface paradigms and the role of theory in informing design. The topics will be grounded in the design process and the aim is to present relevant issues in an integrated and coherent way, rather than assembling a collection of chapters on individual HCI topics.KEY FEATURES: This truly integrated approach to HCI provides students with background information from psychology, sociology, anthropology, information systems and computer science provides principles and skills for designing any technology through the use of many interesting and state of the art examples. The author supported, highly interactive Web Site provides resources that allow students to collaborate on experiments, participate in design competitions, collaborate on design, find resources and communicate with others. The accompanying Web Site also features examples, step-by-step exercises and templates for questionnaires

Works of Game:On the Aesthetics of Games and Art
No full textPermainan dan seni telah berkaitan paling tidak sejak awal abad ke-20, seperti yang dapat dilihat pada penggunaan surealis indah dari Exquisite Corpse dan game lainnya, obsesi Duchamp dengan nilai dan kotak Catur, Fluxus dan beberapa nama - untuk menyebutkan beberapa contoh saja. Selama lima belas tahun terakhir, sintesis seni dan permainan telah mendung bagi para seniman dan gamemaker. Seni kontemporer telah menggambar di set alat videogame, namun tidak menganggapnya sebagai bentuk budaya dengan kemampuan konseptual, formal, dan eksperimentalnya sendiri. Bagi mereka, pengembang game dan pemain fokus pada sifat bawaan permainan dan pengalaman yang mereka berikan, sedikit memberi perhatian pada apa artinya menciptakan dan mengevaluasi seni rupa. Dalam Works of Game, John Sharp menjembatani kesenjangan ini, menawarkan estetika permainan formal yang mencakup kesamaan dan perbedaan antara permainan dan seni. Sharp menggambarkan tiga komunitas praktik dan menawarkan studi kasus untuk masing-masing. "Art Game," yang mencakup artis seperti Julian Oliver, Cory Arcangel, dan JODI (Joan Heemskerk dan Dirk Paesmans) memperlakukan videogame sebagai bentuk budaya populer yang dapat dipinjamkan materi, alat, dan proses yang dipinjam. "Artgames", yang diciptakan oleh pembuat game termasuk Jason Rohrer, Brenda Romero, dan Jonathan Blow, menjelajahi wilayah yang biasanya ditempati oleh puisi, lukisan, sastra, atau film. Akhirnya, "Artists 'Games" - dengan para seniman termasuk Blast Theory, Mary Flanagan, dan kolaborasi Nathalie Pozzi dan Eric Zimmerman - mewakili konsep game sintetis yang lebih sintetis sebagai media artistik. Karya gamemakers ini, Sharp mengemukakan, menunjukkan bahwa adalah mungkin untuk menciptakan karya seni berbasis game yang memenuhi nilai estetika dan kritis dari komunitas seni dan permainan kontemporer
