Episode 53 - How Video games Depict Madness (with Stefan Simond)
We’re always interested in the way that video games depict us.  One topic that we think has got too little attention is that of how games depict madness, mental illness, insanity….  We chat about the ways video games approach madness, common gaming tropes about madness and psychiatric institutions. --------------------------- Our guest, Stefan Heinrich Simond, is a game studies scholar from Germany. He hosts a weekly podcast on game studies and video game culture, called Studying Pixels. He teaches at Philipps University Marburg and University of Wuppertal and is currently working on his PhD dissertation on madness in video games. In 2020, he co-published an anthology on illnesses in video games, titled Krankheit in Digitalen Spielen (open access available). --------------------------- JOIN THE ETHICS AND VIDEO GAMES COMMUNITY: - Follow/like/share us on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube  - Explore our website and check out our Video Games Ethics Resources Center: https://ethicsandvideogames.com - If you're game to lend us your financial support, we'd love to have it and can definitely use it!  You can do that here: SUPPORT OUR PODCAST! - Give us a review whereever you listen to podcasts - If you've got an idea or an ethical issue involving video games that you think would make for a good podcast, please let us know!  Contact us at ethicsandvideogames.com or email us at contact@ethicsandvideogames.com.  We’d love to hear from you!
