RESEARCH INTERESTS
LLMs and Inter/Consciousness
While I maintain an ongoing interest in film philosophy, and cinema studies more broadly, I am currently investigating opportunities to do with Artificial (General) Intelligence, Language Learning Models (LLMs), and the definition of consciousness in relation to large volume datasets, curated data, and the overly syllogistic product of communication. Publication Pending.
Deleuze, Cinema, and the Affect of Time
In 2018, I recommenced my Doctor of Philosophy at RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia. There I began investigating the relationship between affect and time with regard to Deleuze and his famous Cinema books. Thesis pending.
Extreme Durational Moving Images
In 2014, I completed my Honours in Media and Communication at RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia. There began my journey investigating the relationship between time, affect, the audience, and the moving image, with an emphasis on slow media. Available to read here.
