In his book Gry wideo. Zarys poetyki (Video Games. Outline of Poetics), Piotr Kubiński skilfully maintains a balance between comparing the singular phenomenon that video games represent to other forms of art while attempting to describe a new phenomenon using certain traditional categories, and underscoring their significant individuality and characteristic features. In searching for an adequate tool for studying the new phenomenon, the author analyzes multiple aspects of a variety of examples, examining such categories as immersion, emersion and the graphic interface of the user. He also raises the problem of connections between video games and other genres of art, doing so not only in the section dedicated to such comparisons, but throughout the book. His exemplification is aided by transparent and compelling illustrative material. The book appears to represent an important step forward in Polish studies of video games, particularly in view of the introduction and detailed discussion of the concept of emersion, but also due to the penetrating interpretations of specific artistic solutions and tropes.

W swojej książce Gry wideo. Zarys poetyki Piotr Kubiński umiejętnie zachowuje równowagę pomiędzy porównywaniem szczególnego zjawiska, jakim są gry wideo, do innych sztuk i próbą opisu nowego fenomenu z wykorzystaniem niektórych tradycyjnych kategorii, a podkreślaniem ich znaczącej odrębności oraz cech charakterystycznych. Poszukując adekwatnych narzędzi badania nowego zjawiska, autor wieloaspektowo analizuje rozmaite przykłady, rozpatrując takie kategorie, jak immersja, emersja oraz graficzny interfejs użytkownika. Porusza także problem związków gier wideo z innymi gatunkami sztuki, czyniąc to nie tylko w rozdziale temu poświęconym, ale i w całej publikacji. Egzemplifikację wspiera przejrzystym i interesującym materiałem ilustracyjnym. Książka ta wydaje się istotnym elementem w polskich badaniach nad grami wideo, szczególnie ze względu na wprowadzenie i szczegółowe omówienie pojęcia emersji, ale także ze względu na wnikliwe odczytania konkretnych zabiegów artystycznych i tropów.

Today we are seeing significant technological progress in the context of imitating reality. One technology which emulates our reality in comprehensive way is photogrammetry. The aim of the article is to illustrate the using of photogrammetry in the context of video games. The main part of the text is an analysis of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter (The Astronauts, 2015). The authors of this video game decided to apply photogrammetry in order to display vast spaces in which an avatar is moving. I indicate that such an implementation not only creates a reliable illusion of reality, but also crucially affects video games’ poetics and narration.
