About

I am a historian and theoretician of art, film and media.

I received my joint degree in the History of Art and Film Studies from Yale University in 2010.

I am an associate professor in the Art History Department of the School of Art and Design at Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas.

My book is The Situationist International and the Social Space of Film: With and Against Cinema (Routledge 2026).

I co-program the microcinema, Experimental Response Cinema in Austin, Texas.

In my scholarship, I focus on three intersecting areas of inquiry:

  • the history and theory of transnational cinema
  • avant-garde aesthetic theory
  • experimental media

I am particularly interested in feminism and the depiction of social space (or the failure thereof).

Ich spreche fließend und gerne Deustch.

Je parle couramment français et avec grand plaisir.
