Hi,

I'm a researcher at the University of Sussex in the UK, and I've been looking into the accessibility of Second Life for blind and severely visually impaired users.

For the next stage of our project we want to conduct a round of interviews and are now looking for volunteers to participate, who must be 18 years or older. We'd like to take 30 minutes of your time for a voice chat to hear about your experiences of getting around in the real world, and any experiences you have of doing so in virtual worlds such as computer games. The aim is to direct our further work developing interaction techniques for blind users in Second Life.

For more information please read the Explanatory Statement and Consent Form.

If you'd like to participate please send an email to [email protected] , confirming that you've read both of these documents and agree to the conditions listed in the consent form.

You can read more about the project on our blog, blindsecondlife.blogspot.com
