About

My work investigates various intersections between technology, environment, knowledge, and the public. I have a background in the social studies of science and technology, and my recent work is mainly concerned with the role of devices, environments and things in the enactment of participation (in public life, innovation, research, change). I take a special interest in digital forms of social research, with a focus on the development of methods and tools of controversy analysis and issue mapping. Finally, I have done work that brings together science and technology studies with political theory: I have written about issues of democracy in the technological society, and (neo-)pragmatist contributions to our understanding of it, through concepts of material participation and public experiments.
