I am author of Systems Ultra: Making Sense of Technology In A Complex World (Verso 2024) and Stigma and the Shaping of the Pornography Industry (Routledge 2017).
I was editor and creative lead of Supra Systems (University of the Art London, 2018), a visual object which comprised a series of essays and visual explorations which explored how complex systems are addressed and experienced through creative practice.
My writing frequently appears in print and online, as essays, fiction, book chapters, catalogue essays, and journalistic writing.
