The overarching question that drives me is “how does technology shape humanity?” More specifically, I am interested in questions related to how technological mediation structures cultural production, as the (often hidden) architecture of technical media are often overlooked, whether embedded in the BIOS of computer systems, structure of processors, design of compression algorithms, database structures, or the particular ways in which the interface coerces a particular comportment.
Although I consider myself to be “methodologically promiscuous,” (as different questions call for different methodologies) the majority of my research has focused on critical media and cultural studies, utilizing textual /rhetorical analysis, systems / form analysis, and various ethnographic methods.
