Hello,

I'm a 'Master of Design' student. In my dissertation, titled 'Mastery, Puppetry and Self-Representation', I hope to examine the relations of virtual and real-world identities in the context of Interaction Design using Motion Capture, Animation and Interviews. The practical part of my project concentrates on 'World of Warcraft' avatars and how their creators feel about full body control and immersion.

As part of my research, I've designed this questionnaire - focusing on virtual worlds and avatars in general - to gain some quantitative feedback about my topic.

I hoped some of you would be interested to take part. If anyone would also like to participate in further in-game interviews, please don't hesitate to get in touch. I'm grateful for any feedback on the questionnaire and topic in general.

Thank you very much in advance
