In Alltags- und Arbeitskontexten soll Technik funktionieren. Beim Spiel tritt eine Aufgabe hinzu, die zentral ist: Mittels Technik - eben Glücksmaschinen - sollen Emotionen geweckt, gar gesteuert werden. Ein Bereich originär menschlichen Handelns wird an Technik delegiert. Die Eindringtiefe und die Wirkmächtigkeit von Technik sind hier bedeutend höher als bei der Arbeit und im Alltag. Es ergeben sich spielspezifische Anforderungen an Technik. Stefan Poser analysiert diese Entwicklung, die uns seit der technischen Moderne prägt, anhand von Beispielen aus dem Sport, dem Jahrmarktsvergnügen und dem Spiel mit technischem Spielzeug. Damit öffnet er ein neues Feld der Technik- und Kulturgeschichte. [Technology should work in everyday and working contexts. The game involves a central task: using technology - machines for happiness - to arouse emotions, even to control them. An area of original human activity is delegated to technology. The depth of penetration and the effectiveness of technology are significantly higher here than at work and in everyday life. This results in game-specific demands on technology. Stefan Poser analyzes this development, which has been shaping us since the technical modern age, using examples from sports, fairground fun and the play with technical toys. Thus he opens up a new field in the history of technology and culture.]
