Education
My research centers around histories of information; science, technology and society (STS); modern and contemporary design; the environmental impact of digital technologies; and how designers and design processes respond to technological upheaval.
Research essays include 'Information Overload Before the Internet: A Historiography of Eighteenth-Century European Encyclopedias' and 'Design, Information, Translation: From Point Paper to Punch Cards in Nineteenth-Century Jacquard Weaving'.
My MA dissertation, titled 'Small Tech, Slow Tech: Alternative Web Design Ideologies and Practices, 2005–2021', was inspired by my interest in early web design styles and processes and the contemporary interest in static site generators (SSGs).
