About
My academic interests sit somewhere roughly in the interstices of media studies, communication studies, intellectual history, and continental philosophy, concerned with digital cultures, intellectual discourses, and the civic role of the humanities in both historical and contemporary contexts. Across these broad and varied areas, I focus particularly on the cultivation of audiences, identities, and public personae and the ethical/aesthetic practices and technologies of selfhood by which individuals and communities make sense of their position in the world.
My most recent monograph is Speaking Philosophically: Communication at the Limits of Discursive Reason (London: Bloomsbury, 2023).
