An ‘undisciplined’ researcher exploring how re-presentations — popular culture, arts, media, and scenarios — of futures, presents and pasts shape problem formulations, expectations and action (or the lack).

The four-fold imagination
"Blake's vision for ecology is ... aimed at radically extending awareness of the ecologies of which we’re a part."
Anthropocene: human-made materials now weigh as much as all living biomass
"The science-fiction scenario of an engineered planet is already here."
Time, and the conscious asteroid
"Perhaps the past is not something so distant, and could well be more progressive in certain ways than any vision of the future."
There’s no such thing as “We”
"Evoking the universal 'we' is a technique of discarding through differentiation in a way that upholds dominant power dynamics."
