In 2009 I completed my PhD thesis on the relationship between time and film style, in the Film and Television Studies Department of the University of Warwick. In 2011 I took up the post of Assistant Professor of Video Art and Digital Media, which is shared equally across the departments of History of Art, Film and Television Studies, and the School of Theatre, Performance and Cultural Policy Studies.

 

 

 

My main research interests are in video art, film aesthetics, digital media and world cinema. I have particular interests in: the temporality of moving image works; live audiovisual performance; the filmmaker Andrei Tarkovsky, video projection and urban space; transmedial adaptation; and video games. I am currently working on a book about the artist Joseph Cornell's experimental film work, as well as articles about projection mapping in the city, and the adaptation of video game stylistics in contemporary cinema.

I am also teaching a course on adaptation in audiovisual media that involves the analysis of film, television, and video game text.
