The Aleks Shrine [Information] aleksandra Krystyna Theresa krotoski, born October 22nd. aleks, also known as thatloud American one or the one with the green in her hair , http://www.theshrine.connectfree.co.uk/info.html
Extractions: [Taken from the Bits official site Aleksandra Krystyna Theresa Krotoski, born October 22nd. Aleks, also known as "that loud American one" or "the one with the green in her hair", is a videogame purist, a fan of almost any type of game other than beat 'em ups or driving games, partly because they're about the only ones she can't whip with her eyes closed. Unafraid of the complexities of hardcore gaming, she even likes real-time strategy games. The words "minions" and "little people" dance around her mouth like dwarves in an Elizabethan court. But it's not all beard-envy. The cry of "Die suckers" and gunshots can often be heard from Aleks' window too, and thus she's a truly rounded human being. Aleks is a true old-style gamer, one of those rare breed who played the very first few arcade games out there. Pumping the quarters in her home town of Louisiana, hanging around laundrettes to fire up coin-ops like Frogger, Aleks learned the skills and knowledge that have got her here. Daddy was never short of a quarter or two, and little Aleks was never afraid to spend any of them. The inevitable leap to a home console was made with the Atari 2600, the first genuine home videogame smash, and the reason for many a late piece of homework for young Aleks. Pitfall, Breakout and Q-Bert entered Aleks's world. From there came the NES, the SNES and finally the N64. Yes, Aleks is a Nintendo freak, and unashamedly so. The heavy workload of a psychology degree in Oberlin, Ohio suggested leaving the console back at home. Thinking herself free from the harsh commitments of hardware, Aleks the undergraduate walked straight into study rooms brimming with PCs.

Extractions: Since early 2000, the charitable organization has been sending programmers, network designers and technical support to cities in some of the most impoverished nations in the world. Geekcorps was conceived after Tripod co-founder Ethan Zuckerman visited Ghana in 1993. Inspired to narrow the digital divide, Zuckerman set up the initial program with six volunteers who were sent to Ghanaian city of Accra to develop Web applications and banking software with local companies. Geekcorps volunteers are assigned to a partner business based upon their experience and the local needs of places where information technology already plays an important part in the development of the economy. With their technical know-how and specialties, the geeks bring high-tech solutions to the local business challenges, which included everything from developing e-business infrastructures to establishing communication models. "One preconceived notion of which I had to disabuse myself was that the so-called Information Revolution has completely passed Malians by," explains Mali-based Geek Peter Baldwin. "This is simply not true. IT just looks a little different here."

Extractions: Main I've just returned from seeing Aleks Krotoski 's talk at the FACT regarding social interactions within virtual worlds and their implications within the real world . It's a fascinating topic and was thoroughly explored in a talk which carefully balanced itself between introduction for newbies and explanation for the more knowledgable. I haven't actually played within any of these virtual worlds. Never actually being a very good gamer, and with my dial-up connection I spend more of my time online reading and writing. I tend to have quite an addictive/compulsive personality though, so assuming I could get to grips with a game in a meaningful way, hours and days of my life would disappar. It's interesting to compare the gaming experience or use of the internet with mine, and how even within my limits I still have a sort of online social life and at times it can be as intense as that felt by those who 'live' within a games environment and possibly moreso because I don't have the face of a character or avatar to hide behind and neither does anyone else. Generally (within a weblog for example) what you see in what you get. Generally.

Extractions: Main Clickable Culture's got a piece on Aleks A gamer at heart, Aleks Krotoski is enthusiastic about Second Life culture and impressed with its diversity. Looking back on her journey through the Scottish highlands, she recalled that her fellow travelers "all got something out of it that they didn't expect." Krotoski bears similar respect for her virtual-world neighbours. "I want to learn from the collection of people who've gathered in Second Life, all of whom have come here for their own reasons. Everyone has something to offer. I like that." .. and if you want to go say hi, Second Life are currently offering up free accounts (until July 15 so get moving). 11:20 AM Permalink TrackBack URL for this entry:
