I am a lecturer in the School of Political Science and Communication at the University of Canterbury, New Zealand, and I have recently been awarded a PhD for my research into the discursive construction of radio spectrum. I organise art projects relating to radio transmission and experimental music, and am a member of the Audio Foundation Trust, which supports innovative audio culture in New Zealand, and a board member of the Aotearoa Digital Arts Network (ADA). On behalf of ADA, I recently co-curated 'cloudland', an ISEA 2008 partner exhibition of digital art from Aotearoa / New Zealand.
