TY - JOUR TI - Toward playable literature AU - Przybyszewska, Agnieszka TI - Toward playable literature AB - The aim of the paper is to define and to characterize the playable literature. The relation between the playability and the text’s structure projected by its author is strongly stressed, alike the performative character of this kind of texts. The emphasis is also put on the connection between the category of the playability of the literature and its materiality (in context of K. Hayles’s theory of technotext and J. Pressman’s concept of aesthetic of bookishness among others). The author shows transmedia history of the playable texts and at the same time analyzes relation of literary playability with the modern culture and the newest tendencies in HCI creation. Theoretical approach is supplemented by some analysis of B. Ortiz Moreno’s and J. Andrews’ works connecting playability and literacy in really creative way. The final part of the paper reveals also some statements on Polish playable literature.
