Jon Saklofske’s interest in the ways that William Blake’s composite art illuminates the relationship between words and images inspired current research into alternative platforms for open social scholarship as well as larger correlations between media forms and cultural perceptions. Jon is a longstanding member of the Implementing New Knowledge Environments (INKE) project, and is exploring ways to incorporate virtual environments and game-based stories into research and teaching. Other research includes environmental storytelling in theme parks and the critical potential of feminist war games.
