- "Pseudonynimity AKA Privacy" by Soror Nishi decried what she sees as a growing consensus in the avatar community that revealing one's human identity is a good thing. Soror finds the "avatar AKA human identity" trend boring and wrong-headed.
- "There is No Wall" by Lalo Telling put forward the idea that the "Augmentationist/Immersionist" conversation would be better served by replacing those terms with "Separatist/Integrationist."
This first graphic takes the binary view of pseudonymity discussed in Soror's post and attempts to reveal the multi-dimensional complexity beneath the surface.
This next graphic explores the "what" of Lalo's Separation/Integration concept.
I'll write more about the graphics and their underlying ideas later this week.

This is great stuff Botgirl! I look forward to reading your upcoming posts, describing the graphics.
I think this is going to become an increasingly important topic in the coming months. One that while having been extensively debated within VWs, will be a part of everyday RW conversations.
Nice graphical representation of the concept and interesting typologies. It definitely needs more exploration.
As usual your clarity is a welcome addition to every discussion.... look forward to more, this is culture being born, I think.
