[games_access] Conference in Barcelona

[Carme Mangiron]

Hi Michelle and everybody,

I am enclosing the booklet of abstracts for the conference in Barcelona, 
so that you can see what papers were presented on the game / virtual 
worlds accessibility strand and their approach. I also hope to have 
links to most full presentations by mid-next week, and I will also 
forward them to the list.

On the meantime I am also enclosing a link to the presentation I 
delivered explaining a pilot study about the reception of captions in 
game subtitling that I will be carrying out in the new year, in case it 
may be of interest.

Kind regards,

Carme
