Thesis (M.A.)--University of Wyoming, 2015.

Why is the ongoing adaptation of George R. R. Martin's book series, A Song of Ice and Fire, into the HBO television series Game of Thrones so popular? The short answer is, because of the process of media melding working within the show, and the resulting interactive invitations extended to the audience. Media melding as a concept grows out of Henry Jenkins' work on convergence culture, and Bolter and Grusin's concept of remediation. It is a process during which media take on characteristics traditionally understood as belong to other media, in order to inspire a sense interactivity in the audience. Through observing the media melding process at work in Game of Thrones, I suggest that the traditional view of adaptation, as information transitioning between media, becomes outdated. Media has to be able to do more than merely depict information in different forms according to the particular medium's strengths. Game of Thrones proves it is up to this challenge by using the process of media melding to capture the interactive imagination of a global audience.
