I am an Australian Research Student (in Geography: mainly virtual places and spaces) from Sydney. This year, I am writing my thesis on online collaborative communities and citizenship, and wikipedia is my case study.
Thank you to the many, many people who volunteers to be interview subjects for my research. The thesis will be ready at the end of October, when I will post it on the site.
Cheers,

The Death of Marat is a 1793 painting by Jacques-Louis David depicting the artist's friend and murdered French revolutionary leader, Jean-Paul Marat. It was painted when David was the leading French Neoclassical painter, a Montagnard, and a member of the revolutionary Committee of General Security. Created in the months after Marat's death, the painting shows Marat lying dead in his bath after his murder by Charlotte Corday on 13 July 1793. Art historian T. J. Clark called David's painting the first modernist work for "the way it took the stuff of politics as its material, and did not transmute it".Painting credit: Jacques-Louis David
