I am a bricoleur-as-researcher engaged in deep mapping, a practice of situated, embodied inhabitation through which I enter into dialogue with my surroundings. My current project interrogates the role of navigational applications—particularly Google Maps—in re/figuring the urban everyday.

Recent projects include “Making space for deep mapping: rendering theory as practice”, a research-creation thesis which experiments with digital methods for theorymaking, and Deep mapping cartography’s limits: the artfulness of rendering spatial practice, an effort towards bringing process philosophy and mapping into conversation. You can find my ongoing theorizing at negative-spaces.github.io/the-middle-of-things/.

Apart from feeling the city, my spatiorhythmic practices include unicycling and fiddling on the viola. Though, unlike the simultaneous apprehension of light behaving as wave and particle, I may, at times, be observed doing both at once.
