Upcoming publications

Since I have just gone public (instead of just writing to myself and my own constructed life-trajectory-narrative-whatever...), I might as well do some more self-promotion.
In the year 2006 I will be publishishing the following;

- I am bursting with pride that my paper for the international conference "Origins of religion, cognition and culture" entitled "Religion and the emergence of human imagination" has been accepted for the associated publication. I have made significant progress in my research on the cognitive study and description of imagination since January, so I will have a good deal of writing to do over the summer. Deadline September.

- I contribute two articles on fantasy literature for a book primarily directed at teacher's colleges, first-second year college students, and danish grammar-school (3.g opgaver i gymnasier). One will be on the psychological interpretation and personal and cultural significance of Fantasy-stories, and the other a more political and post-structuralist inspired account of the heroic character in fantasy-fiction (with Frederik Berg Olsen, who will contribute a different angle based on Campbell's Hero with a Thousand faces). Deadline August.

Staying with publications. My recently article entitled "With role-playing in mind - a cognitive account of decoupled reality, experinece and identity", featured in the new Knutepunkt book "Role, play, art" has been very well received indeed, and I am currently looking for a venue of publication for its theoretical big-brother which was presented at "Playing Roles" in Tampere, Finland this March.
