Research Interests

My research and teaching activities are situated at the intersection of media studies, organization studies and science studies. My aim is to sensitize for the sociotechnical mangle that results from the interweaving of media, technologies, institutions, norms and discourses. In addition to working conceptually and with historical cases, I follow the reflexive comprehension of empirical research as is was mapped by Science and Technology Studies.
