Call for Paper / Konferenz in Second Life

Von 24. - 26. September  2009 findet die Konferenz SLACTIONS 09 statt, als erste internationale Konferenz ohne zentralen Konferenzort direkt in Second Life. Auf der Homepage heißt es: “SLACTIONS 09 is the first international conference held simultaneously in several countries on the topic of metaverses. SLACTIONS 09 aims at covering most areas currently enabled by metaverse platforms, from educational research to content production, from gender studies to media distribution, and from metaverse-based branding, advertising, and fundraising to emerging mash-ups and technology applications. SLACTIONS 09 is unique in its format too, as a one-of-a kind event conducted both in a metaverse platform (Second Life) and on-site in multiple countries in Europe and in North and South America. SLACTIONS will thus contribute to the current redefinition of the way we think about hybrid online and on-site scholarly collaborations.”

Hört sich spannend an, Deadline für die Einreichung von Papers ist der 28.Februar 2009. Mehr über die Konferenz unter http://www.slactions.org/
