Acoustic Ecology Coined in the 1960s, the term Acoustic Ecology refers to a specific domain of research centred around the sound-based relationship between a living creature (such as a user) and the environment that surrounds them. As such it seeks to understand why the sounds produced in a given environment are produced, what effect those sounds have on the individual receiving them, and finally how to duplicate those sounds such as the environment sounds perfectly natural.

This book offers an exploration of games as systems in which young people participate as gamers, producers, and learners. In the many studies of games and young people's use of them, little has been written about an overall "ecology" of gaming, game design and play - mapping the ways that all the various elements, from coding to social practices to aesthetics, coexist in the game world. 
 This video is basically a tour of some of the many ecological projects taking place within the virtual environment platform known as Second Life. Along the way, it serves as an excellent overview of Second Life, and indeed social virtual worlds in general, for those who have never experienced one. It is also good for those who adamantly refuse to ever try such.
