Klastrup's Cataclysms

This is the research diary of researcher Lisbeth Klastrup, since february 2001 sharing her thoughts on life, universe, persistent online worlds, games, interactive stories and internet oddities with you on the www.

I am currently on leave from the IT University of Copenhagen, and from aug. 2006 - aug. 2007 working as Associate Research Professor at the Center for Design Research Copenhagen, an independant center situated at the School of Architecture. During this year, I will be working on a book about the development of aesthetics, design and interaction on the WWW, together with colleague Ida Engholm.

My blog often reflects how busy I am in general, so posting may be pretty irregular, as well as my potential response to comments. But I read them!

The WoW anthology goes to the press

Im' a week late, but nevertheless: the World of Warcraft anthology (to which Im a proud contributor of a chapter on death in WoW) has been sent to MIT Press!. Jill and Hilde have been brilliant editors so far, including securing money for and organising a workshop for all the authors which took place in Bergen last year. Having met and discussed the papers of all the contributors have made it much easier to write the article, and to make references to other authors, and this will likely result in a book that will be experienced as one coherent piece of work, rather than a dissipate collection of articles, which sadly many anthologies end up being.
Can't wait to see the print version!

Interessant! Jeg har et hold i kulturforståelse på hhx, hvor vi har undersøgt, analyseret og læst om WoW og Second Life. Det kunne derfor være fantastisk for faget eleverne og læreren, hvis du ville udgive noget på dansk. Vi har allerede læst din artikel "EverQuest som en ny tids fiktion".

Hej Louisa, tak for din kommentar! Det er dejligt at vide at der er nogen der læser mine danske tekster. Vi har desværre ikke planer om at udgive antologien i en nordisk version, selvom det kunne være interessant og jeg har heller ikke pt andre artikler på dansk inden for emnet på bedding. Men nu vil jeg da tænke over om jeg ikke bør skrive noget til et dansk publikum igen snart!
