The World of Casino Gambling
Physical Casinos have always been restricted to extra-territorial places within the U.S., tribal land, boats and resorts. Disconnected "gambling" and its relations to the society was the main focus of this research study. Studying closely those extra-territorial areas, ideas about fusions, hybridizations of physical gambling with other infrastructure networks emerged. The research includes topics such as physical gambling, virtual gambling and infrastructure networks within the U.S.
