» » » Relishing my new post as Visiting Assistant Professor of Media Studies at The University of Tulsa. The TU student newspaper, The Collegian, reported on my visit to the department's introductory class — an "interview" of sorts.
» » » I've written some guest newspaper columns recently — one about a protest song that went viral (just as I began my fall seminar on protest music!) and another about the legacy of musician Dwight Twilley (RIP).
» » » Cheers to all the brilliant scholars who submitted papers for our open panel — "Manifesting and Mediating Cyborg Ecologies," with co-organizer Jason Archer — at the 4S conference in November. The session was even more enlightening than we'd hoped — the best result! Thank you!
