The movement through game space can then be described as a vector defined by possibility spaces, which are generated organically out of the interplay between ruled and unruled space. But we can only define rules ex negativo, therefore the possibility of breaking the rules is always already inscribed in this vector of movement. This can be conceptualized as a boundary operation that takes the difference between 'ordinary life' and 'play' as its argument, and which thus generates the difference between 'play' and 'game'.}, language = {en} }
