Shannon welcomes Zombies, Run! game designer Adrian Hon to discuss the "gamification" of society. In his book, You’ve Been Played: How Corporations, Governments, and Schools Use Games To Control Us All, Hon reveals how points, badges, and leaderboards are creeping into every aspect of modern life. The book is a blistering takedown of the manner in which corporate, organizational, and governmental entities use games and gamification as tools for profit and coercion. Their goal is behavior modification, and we're often forced to play these "games" to manage our careers and navigate our personal lives and consumerism.
Cultural Controversy with Shannon Fisher delves deeply into the personal, political, and societal perspectives of the human experience. The show explores the worlds of writers, artists, celebrities, community leaders, and everyday Joes and Janes and offers listeners food for thought on topics we're often told to avoid in polite conversation.
