D. Myers at anti-you, anti-me, anti-anti is quite critical of Castranova's recent article in Game Studies. Makes for interesting reading.

About Me
- Torill
- This is the journal of Torill Elvira Mortensen. I am an associate professor at Nord University in Bodø and the IT University of Copenhagen. The topics of my writings here are among other things media studies, reader-response theory, role-play games, Internet Culture, travel, academic weirdness and online communication - put together at random. Google scholar page.
For my students
If you're one of my students you probably came to this blog looking for Notater, Torill. That's where you find links and notes related to lectures in Norwegian - and some in English.
