Abstract

Abstract: This publications aims to open the path to institutional research in the field of game studies in Latin America. It is integrated by a diverse selection of articles that expose the wide myriad of topics that are being addressed today by academics, researchers, artists, developers and professionals that come from different epistemologies into the video games’ field. This first publication is not thought to work on the specificity of a particular issue, but on the contrary to account for the wide range of approaches, paradigm changes and new concepts that are emerging today when video games are played, re-aproppiated and re-formulated . The articles reflect upon the relationships that can be established between videogames and narrative, between the visual arts and music and among the realms of education, communication and science.
