An Associate Professor in the Digital Technology & Culture Program (DTC) at Washington State University Vancouver, I focus in the areas of Emergent Technologies & Cognition, Electronic Literature, and Ephemera.

My book New Worlds, New Words: Exploring Pathways In and About Electronic Environments, for example, speculates about the ways in which writing and thinking change when moved to electronic environments. 

The research generating from my MOVE Lab (MOtion tracking, Virtual Environment lab), like  "Things of Day and Dream" and "Virtual DJ," explores telematic, telepresent, and multimedia performances.  The "24-Hr. Micro-Elit Project" came about because of my growing interest in using social media for digital storytelling and poetic experiences.

As Director of the DTC Program, I see it as the duty of those of us working at Tier One Research Institutions, like WSUV, to take control of electronic technology in order to shape it, else we will, without a doubt, be shaped by it.  We should lead, not merely be content to follow.
