Mathieu,
Thanks for the introduction.
Dear all,
I am honored to be part of the editorial board and look forward to working with you all and growing the community.
I am an Associate Professor in the School of Informatics and Computing at Indiana University, an Affiliated Faculty of the Kinsey Institute, and a Faculty Fellow at the Rob Kling Center for Social Informatics. I co-direct the Cultural Research In Technology (CRIT) Group (
http://crit.soic.indiana.edu/) at Indiana University.
My research centers on a network of concepts of interest to both feminists and Human Computer Interaction (HCI), including feminist research methodologies, human sexuality, embodiment, marginality, collective creativity, and everyday aesthetics. Recent work has focused on exploring the intersections between HCI's rising interest in social change and feminist social science, critical design, material interactions, the role of everyday life, including craft and DIY, in contemporary digital interaction, and the application of critical and cultural theories for developing concept-driven design strategies.
I am also on the editorial board of the journal Interacting with Computers (
http://iwc.oxfordjournals.org/) and co-edited the special issue for “Feminism and HCI: New Perspectives” (
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/09535438/23/5) of the same journal. Additionally, I co-author Humanistic HCI in the Synthesis Lectures on Human-Centered Informatics (Morgan & Claypool Publishers, due out spring 2015) and co-edit Critical Theory and Interaction Design (MIT Press, due out spring 2015).
Once again, thank you for inviting me to be part of the editorial board of JoPP and I look forward to many fruitful collaborations.
