Je découvre ce nouveau carnet portant sur des questions de santé et d'inégalités sociales tenu par Melanie Rock, une étudiante post-doctorale au GRIS... Je cite un de ses récents billets, j'aurais pu en citer 7-8 !

Virtual reality, and in reality... Gamers may soon find that they can score McDonald's simulacra. "Shakes, fries, and pimply-faced employees are irrevocably etched on to every CD of The Sims Online," according to a critical review, originally published by Shift and reprised by AlterNet, which urges consumers to take (virtual) action.

"Actually order and consume virtual McD's food, then use The Sims Online's 'expressive gestures' [feature] in creative ways. Lie down and play dead. Emote the vomiting, sickness, or fatigue that might overcome you after eating a real life McNugget," is one suggestion, provided for would-be rebels to follow. [Melanie Rock]
