I currently have three manuscripts and a co-edited special issue in preparation:

  • Technicity and the assemblages of anticipation for ubiquitous computing (under review as part of a themed issue of Environment and Planning A)
  • The neuropolitics of the attention economy
  • Mapping desired worlds? Affects, historicity and regimes of hope in technology development

and a working paper: Embracing entanglements – Problematising the cosmopolitics of mobile communications technologies.
