BBC NEWS : Virtual gamers reveal themselves by Elonka at 6:34 pm EDT, Aug 29, 2005 |
The Alter Ego display shows what kind of virtual characters people choose to be in online games and 3D worlds.
This is an article about an exhibit which juxtaposed pictures of "real-life" people, next to images of the characters that they played in MMORPGs. Click on the picture in the article, to be taken to more side-by-side images. I found it very interesting to observe how some people were very different from their avatars, and others were very similar. Though of course the editors seemed to concentrate on the images that provided the most dramatic differences. |
