Leonardo Electronic Almanac announces the LEA - DAC - Embodiment Special Isssue. In this installment, guest editors Andrew Hutchison and Ingrid Richardson provide an overview of six papers on the topic of embodiment that were presented at the Perth Digital Arts and Culture conference in 2007.

This fascinating collection of essays features Julianne Chatelain (on multi-subject experiences and copyright), Allison Kudla (on pictorial parallels in traditional and tech-based art), Ragnhild Tronstad (on the "Uncanny" in new media art), Anders Tychsen and Michael Hitchen (comparing game-time behavior in multi-player and role-playing games), Claudia Müller-Hermann (on spatial awareness in art and design), Truna (aka J.Turner), David Browning and Nicola Bidwell (on simulations of the natural environment in gaming and the reconstruction of corporeal existence in the digital landscape), and Stewart Woods (contrasting board game and video game design).

Enjoy!
