- W2408540295 abstract "All mammals play, including humans. But there are undoubtedly differences between the types and forms of human and non-human animal play. Many of them are closely related to how humans externalize the maintenance and facilitation of highly complex game systems to technologies varying from mere pen and paper and mechanical tools to sophisticated digital, networked computer software. The range of human play seems to significantly exceed that of non-human animals and is meaningfully different in terms of technological advancement. It is therefore justifiable that most contemporary accounts of player-focused Game Studies assume a human player. In cultural theory of games we may take into account her cultural and ethnic background, social class and status or gender and sexual orientation, but ultimately she is one of us and alike the subjects studying her: a human being. However, theories of Game Studies afford approaching humans and non-human animals equals as players and forms an advantageous starting point for research of non-human animal cultures and human-animal communication. To draw examples from some of the most widely acknowledged theorists, Johan Huizinga suggested that it is play what is pre-cultural for all animals – that “ animals have not waited for man to teach them their playing ” (Huizinga 1938, 1). In the same line of thought, Brian Sutton-Smith has noted that for communication theorists “ play is a form of communication far preceding language in evolution because it is also found in animals ” (1997, 6-7). For him, a good definition of play would include both animals and humans (Sutton-Smith 1997, 218-9). Moreover, a commonly agreed upon theoretical stance of games as autotelic – as activities performed for their own sake (e.g. Ducasse 1929) – makes it possible to postulate that individuals from all animal" @default.
