Working on a project for a class - can you please help?
Hi,
I'm working on a project for a social network and organizations class. Basically, if you are/have been in a troupe, cagematch, or other project. Can you please let me know your troupe name and who did you work with?
This is going into a paper at the end of the semester and will be glad to share the findings with anyone who is interested.
Much appreciated,
Elizabeth
PS: If you feel like sending me an email to answer any questions about the project feel free to use my school email at elizabeth.quintanilla@mba08.mccombs.utexas.edu

Paper from class based on the AIC
Hi,
I just wanted to post links to my final paper for my social networks and organizations independent study. It was a lot of fun and didn't realize the AIC had a network structure of a "goldfish"
Thank you for everyone that contributed to the paper,
Elizabeth

If you disrespect your character, or play it just for laughs, it will sell some gags, but it's all technique.

Limited the study to 2-footed improvisers
Sorry, limited the study to just 2 footed human improvisers. Also, the study is incomplete - Read the conclusions.
Still a fun read and Where would we be without Kacey Samiee?

This is fun! What a neat image the map is. I attempted a non-programatic version of an improv socail map a couple of years ago (when I started talking about the importance of social networks to my students).

Yours is way better! Wish I could click on names to see the links... I would also have thought (maybe we'll see this in in future versions) that the instructors would be a BIG part of the network. I expected to see more ColdTowne, Heroes, & State teachers listed as hubs within the network. And now we have Tom Bookers school, too.

Thanks! Limitation of the software but that would be a cool feature to click on the names.
Yeah, I didn't have time to expand the study. Though I am talking with the professor about how to expand it. I really do think the instructors really do play a big part and that wasn't captured by my initial study.
Would need more help from the AIC if I were to expand the study.
