MacLeod, Scott. 2015. [http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2015/01/green-sturgeon-making-of-virtual-harbin.html Green Sturgeon: "The Making of Virtual Harbin Hot Springs as Ethnographic Field Site in Second Life and Open Simulator," The blip.tv version of this video has been removed so I'm posting here the Youtube URL, Just emailed my actual / virtual Harbin Hot Springs proposal and first chapter to a great academic press, How to be at Harbin virtually from our bath tubs, and deeply? Excited to begin my second Harbin book, Google Earth has been deprecated and so could become the basis for an entire virtual world for everyone ... from those who build architecturally with AUTO CAD to STEM-oriented researchers to anthropologists working in the field into which a virtual Harbin as ethnographic field site for actual / virtual comparison could fit].
