Identity in the Age of Cybercitizenship

We live in the time of transparent, yet inevitably present, borders.  Despite this, we identify ourselves with globally spread communities in which we participate with increasing intensity. But what exactly is seen and what can be exposed in the age of fiber optics? How do we come to terms with virtual others? To what extent does our virtual self present our real one? MySpace, Facebook, the 3D world of Second Life-how do we obtain our citizenship in these domains? How do we translate our identities into the language of those? And do our cyberidentities translate back?

This course will focus on the shifts in understanding and performing identity through the means allowed via networking.
