“BORDERLANDS” YOUTH CULTURES OF CREATIVITY IN STREAMING AND ONLINE GAMING
Oct 16 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm

Dr. Gray will explore the intersection of gaming and social media. From #NPC to #Skibidi, digital cultures have immersed themselves into gaming in dynamic ways. These cultural expressions provide a way to explore convergence inside the spaces that young folks occupy within the transmediated spaces of gaming. Drawing from ethnographic observations of gamers and games, this presentation will engage the realities of what gaming and streaming can look like.

Kishonna L. Gray is a Professor in the School of Information at the University of Michigan and a faculty associate at the Berkman Klein Center at Harvard University.
