"We perceive the ‘gamification of LIFE’ to be a huge narrative that will weave throughout film, educational programs and technology platforms. In this context, we will transcend the typical understanding of a “Game” being a make believe temporary reality played for the result of being a winner or loser. Building on Buckminster Fuller’s vision of a ‘World Game’, the idea of a whole systems operation will bring about an ‘Infinite Game’ where we strive playfully as a co-creative civilization to be ‘life’s winner’s’. Using the medium of technology, gaming style narratives can be used to express every ‘avatar’s’ contribution, health and life potential in relation to the social goal and make the social rules of interaction more playful and joyful.
“In the 1960's Buckminster Fuller proposed a “great logistics game” and “world peace game” (later shortened to simply, the “World Game”) that was intended to be a tool that would facilitate a comprehensive, anticipatory, design science approach to the problems of the world. The use of “world” in the title obviously refers to Fuller's global perspective and his contention that we now need a systems approach that deals with the world as a whole, and not a piecemeal approach that tackles our problems in what he called a “local focus hocus pocus” manner” Quote from the Buckminster Fuller Institute (https://www.bfi.org/about-fuller/big-ideas/world-game)

Just as children have grown up playing the world game in school gymnasiums, the next generations will be playing the world game across all media in ways that directly influence and design their own futures. The world needs the voice and direct participation of our youth now. They should have the means and platforms to be global citizens as they mature not only upon reaching a predetermined voting age or ‘working’ age.
This gaming meme will blur the boundaries between film and technology, play and education, fact and fiction, between the virtual and natural worlds. It will be a dance of imagination and materialized reality where the artist and audience slowly merge into a collaborative moment that transitions into a way of life."
