Since they didn’t have access to a plotter, plans had to be printed on A4 paper and stuck together, in a circle. The small details of the gate had to Tweet be drawn up from scratch, using photos and video footage. The skeleton of the gate is made up of 18 X-shaped pieces, and the spinning part is made from small planks. 89 The intricate stargate symbols had to be painstakingly carved, from wood, and chevrons first had to be carved from Styrofoam. The back of the stargate, though painted in gray, is totally fake, but the front looks realistic enough, with chevrons locking and everything. Thanks to an inner track, it even spins. Mango wasn’t too satisfied with the paint-job, but all in all this is a geeky masterpiece, just like the Stargate Share home-cinema . Be sure to check the video Mango made, at the bottom of the post. ..

Website www.genews-ezine.com GE News 8th year in publication There is something quite surreal sitting next to and talking to an actor that you have watched on a television screen as a child. Never in a million years during the 1970s ‐ 80s did I ever think I would one day meet these people and get a chance to talk about their experiences on the show. Well! That has changed, over the past five years and I have had the pleasure of meeting Doctors, companions and the occasional monster. In December 2014 I once again pinched myself as I sat talking to Katy Manning (Jo Grant), and Matthew Waterhouse (Adric) ,at First Contact Conventions www.firstcontactconventions.com.au Lord of Time 3 show in Adelaide. I loved Katy’s character, Jo Grant, she wore amazing trendy clothes reflecting the changing world of the 1970s. She had brilliant, large rings that looked like knuckle dusters, I had never seen so many rings on so many fingers before! She was young, spunky, slightly naïve, but never shied away from danger to the point of offering to sacrifice herself for The Doctor. (The Daemons ) Katy is like Jo Grant in person, trendy, large rings, and full of fun telling stories about her life and time on Doctor Who.

    Playing with Consent: An Autoethnographic Analysis of Representations of Race, Rape, and Colonialism in BioWare’s Dragon Age by Jocelyn Beyer A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Digital Humanities - Anthropology Digital Humanities University of Alberta © Jocelyn Beyer, 2019 Abstract In this thesis I analyse BioWare’s Dragon Age series of video games using a modified autoethnographic method and Sara Ahmed’s queer phenomenology to explore how rape and consent are represented within the games. I find that the player embodies three roles throughout the games in relation to sexual assault – victim, justice, and rapist – and I dedicate a chapter to exploring each in detail. I analyse the games using my own experiences to explore how the player is an embodied subject with an orientation. I also explore the idea that video games are a form of virtual tourism, and that some in-game relationships available to the player are similar to sex and romance tourism. ii Acknowledgements Writing a thesis is hard and awful, though that could just be the coffee and sleep deprivation talking, and I could not have done it without the help of a large group of people. Thank you to my supervisor, Kathleen Lowrey, for all of your help and advice from the very beginning of my grad school journey to the very last days of the writing process. I would also like to thank Astrid Ensslin for all of your hard work and dedication getting this thesis written and ready to go. Thank you to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada for funding my research.
