[Air-L] avatar research ethics

[William Bain]

David Toews wrote "however, puppets don't interact with other puppets" - and I ask: what about games like Shame Station? what about experiments like the "virtual Reprise of the Stanley Miligram Obedience Experiments"? But my real question is what are avatars, does definition depend on context - maybe that was clear enough already  :-) 
   
  Best wishes, Will
