Furry Ex Machina – The social gaming platform VRChat and digital identity generation in the furry fandom [DiGRA 2024] – BCMCR

Just posted a small blog post for my research centre website, condensing down my research paper from DiGRA last year about VRChat and furry identity, if any of y'all are wanting for a short lunchtime read. #furrystudies

Furry Ex Machina: How does VRChat allow for modern instances of digital identity generation and immersion in the furry fandom? | DiGRA Digital Library

I've just been reminded by a discussion elsewhere that I gave the first (I think) #furrystudies paper at DiGRA 2024. I was very proud of this extended abstract and of the paper in general. Here's to more conferences this year too!
