dc.description.abstract	This thesis aims to answer the following question: to what extent do the analytical concepts of playfulness and playability allow us a better understanding of contemporary cultural practices? This question will be examined on the basis of a discourse analysis, literature review and a case study of YouTube. It will be argued that these concepts have the potential to shed new light on contemporary cultural practices.
