Author Bio
My areas of expertise are in technology, the city, transnationalism, postcolonialism, and race. I examine the ways in which media and technology affect everyday life and urban governance.
My research spans disciplines and time periods, drawing on urban studies, media theory, rhetoric, and aesthetics to examine the history and present of media, race, and urban life. I would be happy to supervise PhD students researching topics related to any of these themes.
I am currently Co-Investigator on the AHRC-Funded project, 'Political Ideology, Rhetoric and Aesthetics in the Twenty-First Century: The Case of the "Alt-Right"'.
My monograph, Racing the Street: Race, Rhetoric and Technology in Metropolitan London, 1840-1900 was published in 2020 by University of California Press.
I’ve published research in New Media & Society, Politics, Rhetoric Society Quarterly, Visual Communication, Citizenship Studies, Foucault Studies, and elsewhere.
