Just heard about a NYU conference (Nov 13-15) on "The State of Play: Law, Games, and Virtual Worlds" that looks faaaaascinating. It's drawing speakers from both the game design side, the social sciences side, and the legal side. I'm especially interested in the legal side, given that it's a perspective that is often notably absent from discussions of emerging technologies. Given that gap, this entry is a reminder to myself to try to check up more regularly on LawMeme, a generally helpful and interesting Yale Law blog on issues of digital media. This week's vocab word: "copynorms". Thanks, LawMeme (and Wikipedia)!
Leges humanae nascuntur, vivunt, moriuntur
Human laws are born, live, and die
