[DiGRA UK] PhD (AHRC fully funded) on AI in Analogue and Digital Games at Manchester Metropolitan University

[Paul Wake]

?Hi All,



We've a fully-funded AHRC PhD Scholarship (3 yrs) on Artificial Intelligence in Analogue and Digital Games to commence in September 2018 at Manchester Metropolitan University.



The PhD studentship is designed to initiate new research into AI as it takes an analogue form within contemporary table top games (e.g., board, card and roleplaying games). In order to examine the differing behavioural, experiential, and design aspects as they relate to the materiality of AI across a wide range of often intersecting platforms, the research on analogue AI will take place alongside an investigation of AI in digital games.
