E|C, the e-journal of the Italian Association for Semiotic Studies (http://www.ec-aiss.it/), is dedicating a special issue in 2008 to the semiotics of computer games. It will be edited by Dario Compagno (PhD Researcher in Semiotics at the University of Siena, Italy) and Patrick J. Coppock (Tenured Researcher in Philosophy and theory of languages at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy).

All papers must be written in English, and will be submitted to a double blind peer review process. The call for papers, in English and Italian, is to be found at this link:

The issue will be published online, in a easily and freely printable format. As an example of this see the first special issue of E/C, in Italian on the semiotics of musical discourse, online here:
