Thursday, Friday and Saturday will see the Borders, Boundaries & Liminal States conference in Second Life. Sponsored by Ars Virtua New Media Center, and the CADRE Laboratory for New Media, and hosted at the Amphitheater on Learning (NMC Virtual Worlds), this series of talks and panel discussions (followed by q&a), “will explore how borders are delineated and complicated within/between virtual environments.” Yours truly will be on a panel called “Body in Quotes” on the second day, following up on a discussion with some of the organizers. Full schedule – with a very impressive line-up – online here, how to get there is here, and instructions on participation are here.
