Researching Virtual Worlds, Routledge 2014

Hi all,

Thanks to all of you who have shared our interest in the study of virtual worlds in following our work and research. I hope we will meet at future conferences and seminars thus to follow up on our mutual research interest.

The research anthology “Researching Virtual Worlds – Methodologies for Studying Emergent Practices,” Routledge 2014 (eds. Ursula Plesner and Louise Philips) has now been published and it completes the Virtual Worlds Sense-making and Innovation research project located at Roskilde University in Denmark and with that also this blog.

In running this project, it has been a pleasure for me to work with my colleagues and partners in Denmark and from abroad. My work and research now continues in the research lab: Experience Lab (ExLab RUC). This lab is an offshoot of the VW project. It brings together researchers from the subject areas of performance design, computer science and communication studies.

In ExLab RUC we address issues of how to design for multi sensory and cross-boardering virtual and physical environments and how to visualize heterogeneous and large amounts of data from social media.

Thanks for now, Sisse Siggaard Jensen alias Chenet Shan
