Description:

Modern populations are superficially aware of media potentials and paraphernalia, but recent events have emphasized the general ignorance of the sentient media. Advertising has long been suspected of cognitive manipulation, but emergent issues of political hacking, false news, disinformation campaigns, lies, neuromarketing, misuse of social media, pervasive surveillance, and cyber warfare are presently challenging the world as we know it.

Media Models to Foster Collective Human Coherence in the PSYCHecology is an assemblage of pioneering research on the methods and applications of video games designed as a new genre of dream analogs. Highlighting topics including virtual reality, personality profiling, and dream structure, this book is ideally designed for professionals, researchers, academicians, psychologists, psychiatrists, sociologists, media specialists, game designers, and students hoping for the creation of sustainable social patterns in the emergent reality of energy and information.

Reviews

[Media Models to Foster Collective Human Coherence in the PSYCHecology] is a compilation for professionals with serious interest in how our information-accelerated age and attendant technology shape the way we collectively think and feel – that is, our humanity! The subject strikes me as more than compelling – urgent! Pioneering readers willing to unpack specialist language will be rewarded with a panoramic vantage of the revolution that is changing who we are as a species.

Eminently researched and referenced, the Introduction to this diverse collection proclaims a poetic logic that wins heart with mind. What would you say to incorporating therapeutic features in gamer designs to harmonize civilization and tune us into the intuitive wisdom of universal sentience? Such an encompassing framework inspires because it stands on rational platforms such as mathematics and coding, and from there grasps for the transcendental. Each of the dozen essays that follow investigates some range of “interactive human agency” with our mutable reality, fusing empirical perspectives with often mystical postulates.

– Mr. A. A. Attanasio, Author

Overall, Media Models to Foster Collective Human Coherence in the PSYCHecology is deemed to be successful in presenting modern scientific stance in terms of cognition patterns and their dependence on multiple factors. The book presents very extensive data, gives logical reasoning and shows potential trajectories for the collective consciousness evolution, and, therefore, is recommended for reading.

– Prof. Ekaterina Bondareva, Far Eastern Federal University
