Research interests
I am interested in how computers are made, what they are made from, and how we might support individuals with limited resources to make their own computers. I'm also interested in interdisciplinarity, genealogy and art history.
Technical interests include acoustic phased arrays, organic electronics, nebulisers and microscale droplet patterns, 3d printing and prototyping, and cyber-physical systems architecture.
