Virtual Body Language (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780983054603)

Why does the tail wag the brain? Why can't our avatars walk hand-in-hand? Will a nonverbal Babel fish save the world? Jeffrey Ventrella, a seasoned virtual worlds programmer and visual language guru, reviews the history of avatars, smileys, and other expressive forms, and considers a future of spectacular creativity. This book combines thoughtful scholarship with anecdotes from the trenches of Silicon Valley.
