Library exhibit on virtual worlds and gaming
by Jason on Jun.25, 2009, under Uncategorized
I just put up my first exhibit, on virtual worlds and video games. It’ll be in the GSU Library over the summer. I selected the books and wrote the accompanying text, and our awesome designer Christian Steinmetz created the posters to accompany it. I’m particularly fond of my character sheet.
A full list of the books is on the GSU Library blog. (And thanks again to my friends who contributed suggestions.) I tried to choose a variety of books from different disciplines to show that scholars in many areas (art, business, anthropology, gender studies) are writing about games and VWs, and to give students ideas about how they might write about gaming for a variety of classes.
