This is the research diary of researcher Lisbeth
Klastrup, since february 2001 sharing her thoughts on life, universe, persistent online
worlds, games, interactive stories and internet oddities with you on the www.
I am currently on leave from the IT University
of Copenhagen, and from aug. 2006 - aug. 2007 working as Associate Research Professor at the Center for Design Research Copenhagen, an independant center situated at the School of Architecture. During this year, I will be working on a book about the development of aesthetics, design and interaction on the WWW, together with colleague Ida Engholm.
My blog often reflects how busy I am in general, so posting may be pretty irregular, as well as my potential response to comments. But I read them!
My list of publications.

Find A Death, with a lot of entries on how a number of famous people (primarily American) died. Linked to this site, is a form of companion site: Find a Grave, where you can look for pictures of the grave sites of even more famous people. 41 graves listed for Denmark, including H.C. Andersen, Kierkegaard, Bohr etc.
Find a Death is almost scary in its meticously detailing of everything, down to pictures of the inside of the house where Sharon Tate was killed. What kind of fasciniation is it that leads us to pursue the death of others to the point where people travel around the world to photograph graveyards and murder sites?
The culture of death and the way it is mediated online in western culture is indeed something which calls for study.

It's probably worth researching. How do blogged obits differ from those published in newspapers? What is the role of obits in the social network? How is the death of an active blogger or diarist blogged differently than someone outside the network? Does the decentralized journalism of the blogosphere put together better biography and coverage than local newspapers?
They just stop posting,for awhile.
