RESEARCH
My research focuses primarily on the use and re-purposing of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf hardware for application in theatre Technology. This has lead me to work in the "Maker Culture" and an exploration of the internet as a 21st Century Surplus Store.
My Research Agenda has been deeply colored of late by the writings of Matthew B. Crawford. He has assembled and distilled a great number and variety of ideas regarding Early 21st Century Culture, the Ethics of Work and Motorcycle Maintenance into some very fine articles and a great book.
