Writing ✍️

  • Portals Go Both Ways - Are.na Annual 2022

    • In the wake of high-profile API hacks of political social media platforms, how should we think about using API portals to achieve a better world?

  • Lens & Power - The Cosmophage, 2020

    • Filmmakers are uniquely positioned to understand the power behind the lens; is equipping police with more cameras really a solution?

  • The New Digital Folktale - The Cosmophage, 2022

    • It's now possible to create a film entirely from a computer. How can we use screens in filmmaking to document new community frameworks and cultural mores?

  • The End of Gender or Green Transmisogyny? - Routledge Handbook of Gender and Environment, 2017

    • Through research and rhetorical criticism, I argue that the “ecofeminist” group, Deep Green Resistance (DGR), uses gender artifactualism to erase the subjectivity of trans people, and by defining femininity as artificial and inherently subordinate, specifically targets trans women.
