As my work is specifically an interactive parody and therefore does not conform to the standard academic outline for essays, it is impossible for it to contain references to other material. Indeed, such referencing would be of dubious use as the words and meaning of other materials I have used for this piece are so warped and now only provide a foundation for my own wording.

What I am trying to say is that my reference materials were researched to provide an understanding of the topics and terminology inherent in interaction design, not the basis of an essay. I used this information then to create a different experience, which does not rely on the dry academic structure we are all used to perusing.

That said, here are links to the source materials I have used to compile my understanding of interaction design, and more importantly, of interactive analysis.
