The Arden Institute is a research center at Indiana University whose aim is to promote innovative research on synthetic worlds: crafted online spaces that host thousands of users on a persistent basis. To this end, the Institute supports research activities and hosts an annual conference, the Ludium, whose output is published exclusively on this website. The Arden Institute is an initiative of Edward Castronova, Associate Professor of Telecommunications, Indiana University.
