Colin Green: “As a Computer Department student I became a fan of gaming programming during my school. Whilst developing a game you actually need to understand what brings people to play and how they play. After finishing this course I took my expertize to the next level and I now understand not only technical but also sociological and psychological aspects of the Internet gaming.” |

- “Michael Wesch, cultural anthropologist at Kansas State University, has studied how new media are changing the way people relate to each other and thinks there is great potential for the traces left behind to speak to future generations. In one future he imagined, the dead themselves might become avatars: “Computers may gather all those traces, and my son could get online, and have interactions with a computer-generated entity that would simulate what I would be like,” he said.”, By Chris V. Nicholson, November 1, 2009, NYT
