  abstract = {The constraints of vintage computing platforms bear upon both the cinematic Alien universe and its videogame offshoots.
  The cathode ray tube green screens of the Nostromo's MU-TH-UR 6000 are shaped by the constraints of 1980s hardware, but translate appropriately to 2122. The text displays of command line parsers remain a universal baseline of interface functionality, befitting a utilitarian focussed cargo vessel. Similarly the 1982 Grid Compass 1136 laptops used as remote sentry terminals during Aliens are minimalist due to their vintage, featuring monochrome amber displays and industrial design suitably spartantic for a military mission.
  During the last four decades the Alien saga has crossed over to multiple paratextual forms, including videogames. Videogames are aesthetic interfaces, shaped by platform constraints. The platform constraints faced by game developers in the 1980s and 1990s have each necessitated unique creative takes on remediating the narrative and atmosphere of the Alien franchise as it has imprinted across the timeline of videogame platform evolution over nearly four decades, the initial entry been Alien by Fox Video Games (1982) for the Atari 2600 console.
  This paper focuses in particular on three notable examples of Alien accross retro videogame platforms, each representing an individual generation of retro game aesthetic. These are Alien (1985) by Concept Press Software for the 8-bit Amstrad CPC microcomputer, Alien 3 (1992), developed by Probe Software for the 16-bit Sega Megadrive, and Alien Vs Predator (1994) by Rebellion for the Atari Jaguar, the first 64-bit game console. Each of the games detailed are examined in terms of audiovisual aesthetic, narrative, and authenticity to the franchise.
  As early examples of movie to videogame adaptations, the system constraints of each host system add unique layers to perception of the Alien narrative, at times augmenting and adapting canon to adapt the movies' properties to interactive form.},

Each installation setup encouraged a different style of interaction with the artifact. Observation of users in the exhibition spaces both live and through promotional video documentation alongside feedback given both in-situ and through press reviews provided valuable feedback into the development of the game, influencing its future development path.},

  abstract = {This paper posits that the practices of hacking, modification, and retrofitting of arcade video games, by bootleggers, the retro arcade preservation community, and game artists serve to preserve and extend the lifespans and functionality of classic arcade platforms. By ignoring intellectual property conditions and circumventing bespoke play-only computational media, retro communities and black market enterprises render classic arcade platforms as into editable, augmentable form, allowing hardware and software adjustments for modification of gameplay and continued operation. Parallel to these commercial and archival focused activities, the repurposing of arcade platforms as editable canvasses allows experimentation by artists within the constraints of legacy arcade aesthetics.
  Going beyond the reverse engineering of BIOS chips and duplication of ROM sets, the modified Bootleg editions of heavily pirated 1990s arcade titles such as Mortal Kombat II: Challenger Hack (1993) and Street Fighter 2: Rainbow Edition by Hung Hsi Enterprise Taiwan (c.1992) exist as combinations of fan service and black market entrepreneurship. These bootlegs proved popular to the extent that they directly influenced the development of Street Fighter Turbo II - Hyper Fighting (1992) and subsequent editions. Gameplay innovations adapted by Capcom from the bootleg editions include the adding of a fireball attack to Chun-Li's fighting repertoire, and the ability to perform special moves in mid-air (Leone 2014).
  The retro arcade scene as represented by online communities such as JAMMA+ and UKVAC display constant innovation in their work collecting and maintaining classic arcade games. Enthusiasts from diverse backgrounds including engineers, machinists, graphic designers, assembly language programmers pool together to provide resources for the refurbishment and retrofitting of arcade platforms long abandoned by their original creators. The Donkey Kong Internet High Score Kit (2016) exemplifies the ingenuity of the retro preservation community, bringing 1981 hardware to the internet age, compensating for the disappearance of the arcades as communal gathering points by facilitating competitive tournament play across network space.
  These survival techniques come at a price however to the perceived authenticity of classic videogaming platforms in the collectors market. This hierarchy is topped by the original hardware platforms, while software emulators such as MAME and Retropie occupying the lower rungs of the value ladder, despite their close to identical functionality. The middle ground is occupied by bootleg arcade hardware, in particular modern FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) based systems that simulate rather than emulate.
  Although existing in separate strands of arcade culture, and motivated by different factors, the three parallels of piracy, preservation, and artistic experimentation serve as necessary augmentations of the commercially sealed, consumer level interface of the arcade platform, contributing to the continued archival, active play, and cultural exposure of retro arcade games, platforms, and aesthetics.},

Recent developments, such as advances in digital fabrication, microcontrollers, actuated tangibles, and shape-changing interfaces offer new opportunities to encode data in physical forms and have stimulated the emergence of 'Data Physicalization' as a research area.The aim of this workshop is (1) to create an awareness of the potential of Data Physicalization by providing an overview of state-of-the-art research, practice, and tools and (2) to build a community around this emerging field and start to discuss a shared research agenda. This workshop therefore addresses both experienced researchers and practitioners as well as those who are new to the field but interested in applying Data Physicalization to their own (research) practice. The workshop will provide opportunities for participants to explore Data Physicalization hands-on, by creating their own prototypes. These practical explorations will lead into reflective discussions on the role tangibles and embodiment play in Data Physicalization and the future research challenges for this area.},

@inproceedings{nolan_frog2010,
  title = {Alternate Gaming Interfaces},
  abstract = {Game interface design as a discipline is concerned with making the connection between a video game and its player as natural as possible. It aims to facilitate an ease of conversation between human and machine. This communication is facilitated by two aspects. These are player input hardware in the form of the game controller and game feedback, typically provided by visual, audio and tactile means. The ultimate goal of an interface design is a balance of aesthetics, functionality and playability.
  The rise of availability of open-source software and hardware prototyping tools has seen the emergence of a vibrant DIY scene in experimental interaction design. This has led to many video game consumers manufacturing custom-made game interfaces for motivations including art, education and accessibility. Off the shelf video game control peripherals are been hacked and re-purposed to perform functions beyond the purposes their creators had originally envisioned, these alternate gaming interfaces feeding fresh inspiration back into the video games industry.},

@inproceedings{nolan_realvirtual_2009,
  abstract = {It is the contention of this paper that posthuman creativity is already taking place, rather than solely existing in the domain of a biomechanical cyberpunk dream. Manifesting work in both cyberspace and meatspace, the posthuman in this case is understood to be someone who embraces digital creative technologies (both hardware and software) taking advantage of the artistic opportunities they afford. The effects of Moore's law over the last two decades has led to a profuse amount of cheap and obsolete computer equipment, both open and closed system. These castaway gadgets have become an abundant raw material, sparking the burgeoning movement of creative hardware hackers. The Internet has enabled the creative subversion of technology, through the dissemination of new creative tools and techniques. Closed video games consoles are being repurposed into new expressive platforms and tools. Indeed, the retro video gaming movement has grown beyond the digital domain, bringing pixels to oil painting and new flesh to performance art. The posthuman aesthetic, conceived in science fiction and nurtured online, is now very real and tangible.},
