Research Fields:
My research draws from 18th- and 19th-century literature; technological and mediated responses to Romantic and post-Romantic literature; literary world-builds and fantasy architectures; scripted spaces and fantasy sites; animation studies and theme park design; the poetics of motion and the moving image; experimental literature; transgressive writing; French post-structural theory, particularly that of Maurice Blanchot; and, most recently, the concept of attraction—as desire, force, exteriorization, play.
