The pervasive game is a significant media practice that reflects the evolving relationship between technology and culture.It is divided into two cognitive orientations that emphasize either culture or technology,depending on differing perspectives regarding the foundations and mechanisms of the game.In the digital media era,new media technology dynamically merges reality and virtuality,resulting in the game becoming culturally pervasive in physical spaces and technologically pervasive in virtual networks.This has given rise to a fresh understanding of the concept of the pervasive game.Focusing on the game practice of the ten-year"Shanghai Urban Space Art Season",this paper explores how the pervasive game driven by digital media has the capacity to recreate urban culture.On one hand,the pervasive game transfers the cultural significance of technology,enhancing urban culture through interactive participation and establishing a new cultural community that transcends anthropocentrism.On the other hand,the pervasive game ignites technological innovation within culture,exploring novel approaches to cultural heritage through the digital continuity of species and the protection of cultural diversity,and it employs digitally gamified mechanisms in urban renewal processes.The pervasive game represents a significant breakthrough in bridging the gap between technology and culture.By merging technology and culture,it directly fosters the development of an integrated technological culture within the digital city.
