The grant calls for two teachers travelling in each direction, teaching at the host university for a period of three weeks. The teaching can take different forms: lectures, seminars, workshops, etc. We have, at KTH, asked faculty members to indicate their interests in visiting and teaching at Peking University. Four persons have indicated a strong interest in making a visit, and they have also proposed possible topics for their teaching. These are: ??Jenny Sundén ??Alex Jonsson ??Daniel Pargman ??Christer Lie. This proposal contains presentations of these persons and their topics. Some other teachers have also indicated an interest, among them Mats Andersson (Internet based learning) and Nils Wennerstrand-Persson (Digital video). Additional teachers and topics can also be made available. The visiting teachers and their topics should be of interest to Peking University and its students and should also fit into the curriculum structure. I therefore ask the School of Journalism and Communication to review the proposals and to comment on the preferences and prospects of inviting two persons during the academic year 2005-2006. Nils Enlund, professor 1．Jenny Sundén Jenny Sundén is Assistant Professor in Media Technology at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm. She received her Ph.D. in Communication Studies from The Department of Communication Studies, Linkoping University. She has published primarily on new media, cultural studies, cyberfeminism, virtual worlds, online ethnography, and digital textuality. She is the author of Material Virtualities: Approaching Online Textual Embodiment (2003, Peter Lang), as well as a co-author of Digital Borderlands: Cultural Studies of Identity and Interactivity on the Internet (2002, Peter Lang). Possible area of teaching: Digital Media, Storytelling and Globalization This series of lectures and seminars attempts to introduce students to studies in digital media and media culture. The aim is to highlight the role of digital media and media development for the ways in which stories are told in an increasingly globalized world. Stories and activities of digital storytelling are understood broadly: As cultural practice, as social and political activities, as forms of art, as well as of play and entertainment. Which stories migrate across borders and cultures – and which do not? How can the notion of globalization be framed in relation to supposedly global communication technologies? Students will explore a selection of critical theories and methodologies used to understand and examine various digital media phenomena, such as web fiction, web art, virtual worlds, bloggs and computer games. These media phenomena will also be put in a broader social and political context in order to open up a discussion about cultural differences/similarities across geographical borders (where Sweden and China will figure as the main points of comparison). Students will do readings and prepare summaries of the readings, short presentations, and/or group presentations to make the discussions in seminars fruitful. ? Studying Digital Media – An introduction ? Hypertext, web fiction and web art – From literature to multi media ? Virtual worlds, chat, and bloggs – On interactivity, interaction and cyberculture ? Computer Games – Gaming, game worlds, and game design ? Digital Media and globalization – On politics, onlilne subcultures, and activism ? Digital Media Studies and the Political – The Case of Cyberfeminism Period of preference: From mid-October, 2005, and onwards. 2．Daniel Pargman Daniel Pargman is an assistant professor in Media Technology at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. He is interested in social phenomena in virtual communities/online meeting places as well as other examples of the interplay between technical systems (computer code) and social systems (human behavior). Daniel Pargman defended his Ph.D. thesis, "Code begets community: On social and technical aspects of managing a virtual community" in December 2000 Possible area of teaching: Virtual communities I would like to give a series of talks about virtual communities on the Internet in general and then move on to online games in particular. A suggestion is to start with a broad outline of how people have used computermediated communication (CMC) for non-instrumental (non-work-related) purposes from the birth of the Internet and onwards and then move on to talk about virtual communities on the Internet during the last 10-15 years (including more theoretical aspects of what "community" can mean in this context and in comparison to "offline" communities). I would draw on material from a Ph.D. course I've given twice called "social interaction and the design of virtual communities" for this part of series of talks (). I would then like to talk about a specific type of online arenas that have become increasingly popular in Europe, the US and Asia during the last few years, namely socalled Massively Mulitplayer Online Games (MMOGs). Examples of such games are World of Warcraft, MU, Legend of Mir II and Lineage. These games have lately also become increasingly studies by European and American researchers (from a variety of disciplines), but by few researchers in Asia - despite their popularity in China and elsewhere. I could talk about av variety of topics in relation to these games and a few exaples are: - History and market of online games - Production and maintainance of online games - Identity in and around online games - Guilds and groups in online games - Law and order in online games - Money and economy in and around online games - Learning and apprenticeship in online games I would naturally have a Western perspective on the topics above. I am aware of the fact that these games are very popular in China and this is also one of the reasons why it would be interesting to give a series a lectures on this subject and to also open up more general discussions about computer games, Internet usage, media habits and how we understand, appropriate and incorporate our experiences of the online, virtual world into our ordinary "offline" lives.
