Description of activity:
My research concentrates on cognitive-affective human experience. I have focused mostly on experiences with and around technology, and as a trained artist, I am engaged in observing the role of higher order thought when creating, and creatively utilizing technology, materials and expression. I currently teach: Mind, Communication and Technology; Digital Media Studies; Perspectives on Social Media; Masters thesis seminar; Digital Communication Colloquium; and have a range of guest lectures in the disciplines of Art, Design, Cultural Studies, Business, Cognitive Science, and Communication Studies.
