Meetings have been held with both Anna and Staffan. The monday was spent in Stockholm with Anna, for some general discussion and introduction to the project. During our tutoring meeting two days later, Staffan gave us tips about authors and terms worth checking out, among other things.
Our literature study so far has helped us expand our terminology, and we've found quite a few really interesting articles (see previous posts!) related to the objective of our thesis.
The objective game study has been started; so far we've analyzed The Darkness, Clive Barker's Jericho and Hour of Victory. We can already see that the results of this study will ease the mapping of the different information channels used by games today.
As for the study of other art forms, Erik have ordered "Understanding Comics" by Scott McCloud which will most likely serve as a superb source of inspiration. We are still looking for literature on how information is conveyed in movies.
