Teaching Interests

In the classroom, what I hope students will come away with—in addition to strong technical skills—is experience and inspiration to creatively think about how media and writing relate to other art forms and modes of inquiry. 足彩app哪个是正规的s will be encouraged to be leaders in the creation and design of uncommon assemblages and hybrids which may very well be tomorrow’s commonplace. In my role as director of the MFA, I encourage a space where students can explore both traditional writing forms as well as experimental genres and hybrids.

Research and Scholarship Interests

I am media artist and writer whose interdisciplinary work includes experimental sound and radio; video works; new media; experimental narrative; theoretical writings; and various media and literature hybrids. Since the early 90s, after having produced a number of radio art broadcasts, my work has focused on new genres and media that have uncertain status and value.
