Abstract
This article seeks to discuss consumer practices in the digital game League of Legends (LoL), from a study based on the field of communication and material culture. The objective is to understand the relationship between objects and players-subjects-consumers. In order to do so, we seek to analyze the social and cultural trajectory of these commodities in the symbolic experiences in LoL. In this perspective, according to the ethnographic method, reports and observations of the consumption of objects in LoL are presented by players from the cities of Belem (PA), Diadema (SP) and Osasco (SP). The results point to the existence of a complex web of interconnected meanings, responsible for (de)codify the objects and transform aggregations of pixels into experiences of communication, consumption and material culture.
期刊介绍：
The journal Comunicação, Mídia e Consumo – Communication, Media and Consumption – is published in printed and digital versions by the Programa de Pós-Graduação em Comunicação e Práticas de Consumo da ESPM-SP – Postgraduate Programme in Communication and Consumption Practices of ESPM-SP – Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing – Superior School of Propaganda and Marketing and it is evaluated as Qualis A2; its editorial line is to approach relevant topics of the field of Communication, understood here as a complex socio-cultural process and practice. The articles must be well-founded and mobilise different authors of a given theoretical tendency so that they develop a critical reflection about the approached thematic topics. In the case of empirical articles, besides the contextualisation and the descriptive stage of the material, we privilege articles which present a theoretico-interpretative of the aspects that are observed in the corpus.
