Personal profile

Research interests

I am a cultural geographer undertaking research in three key fields:

- the value and vocation of theory in human geography, through interventions on the work of Felix Guattari and the notion of minor theory. I have also translated the work of contemporary continental philosophers (e.g. Didier Debaise, Stephane Nadaud, Anne Querrien).

- the geographies of experiment, as well as more recent experiments in expression in geographical writing.

- the geographies and histories of exhaustion, and how these relate to cognate terms such as endurance, energy, negativity, and redemption.
