Welcome to my website, I am an academic and technologist specialised in the computational production and analysis of visual culture.
I am a Senior Lecturer (≈Associate Professor) in Computational Humanities and AI Media at King’s College London where I am part of the Computational Humanities Group, the Creative AI Lab (in partnership with the Serpentine Galleries)and an affiliate of King’s AI Institute which recently did a profile of my work in their spotlight series. I also over a decade of experience in the cultural and creative industries with a focus on the screen sector, including projects and collaborations with the British Film Institute, the BBC, and the British Council.
My work combines critical frameworks in the history and theories of cinema, television, and photography, with advanced technical practice in creative and scientific computing, including applied machine learning technologies (AI). I aim to understand screen culture as a complex dynamic system, drawing on computational modelling and simulation techniques from complexity science.
In this site I collect most of my activities as a “net of notes”, similar in concept and ethos to a digital garden. You can explore the notes starting with any of the following depending on who you are and how you want to engage:
🛠️ My work
📚 Publications
🎓 Study with me
💬 Let’s talk
✉️ Contact info
🕸️ Why a net of notes?
Alternatively you can explore by following the back links, clicking the nodes in graph view, searching directly using the search bar, or the explorer menu (desktop only). You can also see the notes and their links as a expanded network by clicking the graph icon 🕸️ in the graph view widget, start with one of the recent notes below, or even a random note! 🎲
