The Game Is On \u2013 Wie Gaming unsere Welt revolutioniert<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Johanna Pirker [\u00d6sterreich]
Keynote<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

40 Minuten<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Digitale Technologien er\u00f6ffnen neue Erlebnis- und Erz\u00e4hlr\u00e4ume \u2013 und Games geh\u00f6ren zu ihren pr\u00e4gendsten Formen. In ihrer Keynote \u00bbThe Game Is On\u00ab, basierend auf ihrem gleichnamigen Buch, verortet Johanna Pirker Videospiele als narratives Medium, das gesellschaftliche Fragen nicht nur abbildet, sondern aktiv aushandelt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ausgehend von ihrer Forschung zu Games, Virtual und Augmented Reality sowie K\u00fcnstlicher Intelligenz zeigt Pirker, wie interaktive Spielwelten neue Perspektiven erm\u00f6glichen: Sie lassen Spielende Entscheidungen treffen, Verantwortung \u00fcbernehmen, alternative Zuk\u00fcnfte erproben und komplexe Zusammenh\u00e4nge k\u00f6rperlich wie emotional erfahren. Games werden so zu sozialen R\u00e4umen, in denen Gemeinschaft entsteht, Machtverh\u00e4ltnisse sichtbar werden und Empathie einge\u00fcbt werden kann.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Im Kontext von DIGITHALIA kn\u00fcpft die Keynote an zentrale Festivalfragen an: Wer erz\u00e4hlt in digitalen R\u00e4umen? Welche K\u00f6rper, Stimmen und Perspektiven werden sichtbar \u2013 und welche bleiben unsichtbar? Pirker spricht \u00fcber Games als Kunst- und Kulturg\u00fcter, die zwischen Technologie, Kreativit\u00e4t und Gesellschaft vermitteln, und \u00fcber ihr Potenzial f\u00fcr Bildung, Wissenschaft und kritische \u00d6ffentlichkeit. Dabei spart sie auch ambivalente Seiten nicht aus, sondern betrachtet Gaming als umk\u00e4mpften Raum, in dem sich Fortschritt, Ausschluss und neue Formen des Widerstands zugleich zeigen.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diese Keynote ist eine Einladung, Games als gleichwertige narrative Praxis neben Theater, Film und Literatur zu lesen und digitale Spielwelten als Orte ernst zu nehmen, an denen wir verhandeln, wie wir k\u00fcnftig zusammenleben wollen.

Johanna Pirker (*1988) ist Informatikerin und seit Juli 2025 Professorin f\u00fcr N-Dimensional User Experience an der TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology der Technischen Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen. Zuvor forschte und lehrte sie u.a. an der Technischen Universit\u00e4t Graz, der ETH Z\u00fcrich und der Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit\u00e4t M\u00fcnchen. Sie gr\u00fcndete das Game Lab Graz und arbeitete zeitweise in der Spieleindustrie, unter anderem bei Electronic Arts. Pirker forscht zu Games, Virtual und Augmented Reality, K\u00fcnstlicher Intelligenz, Data Analytics und EduTech. Mit ihrem Buch \u00bbThe Game is On: Wie Gaming unsere Welt revolutioniert\u00ab setzt sie sich f\u00fcr die Anerkennung von Games als Kunst- und Kulturform ein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
