M. Sharpe appears only as a passing reference in the course materials, cited tangentially in footnoted discussions of QAnon as a memetic and narrative phenomenon rather than as a primary theorist. The excerpts suggest Sharpe's work touches on how conspiratorial narratives operate through gamified structures and alternate reality game mechanics, connecting to the course's broader interest in how AI-distributed information and algorithmic amplification reshape collective belief systems. Without direct access to Sharpe's own writing in these excerpts, their specific theoretical contribution to the seminar's framework remains unclear, though they seem positioned within debates about narrative technology and social contagion.
