Hi all, video
It is good news for the Virtual Worlds Research Project in Denmark that Ates Gürsimsek will defend his PhD dissertation at Roskilde University Friday the 9th of November, 2012.
The title of his dissertation is: “Multimodal Semiotics and Collaborative Design – a social semiotic approach to the co-production of virtual places and artifacts in Second Life.”
The dissertation is an in-depth study of collaborative design processes in three case studies: The Metrotopia Research Island, a 3-week student workshop and the Pop Art Lab case. Theoretically, among others, the case analyses of the dissertation draw on social semiotics and design theory.
Send us an email (Ates[at]ruc.dk or sisse[at]ruc.dk) if you wish to get a copy of the dissertation
Hope you’ll attend the defense and in case you can not come “in person” we will stream it.

Former research group member, CarrieLynn Reinhard, has teamed up with Second Life entrepreneur and media producer, Pooky Amsterdam, to undertake an examination into the processes and practices of people in Second Life who are producing television programs. From sports shows to dramas, from talk shows to quiz shows, traditional television is being challenged and shown its potential future by this virtual world television.
