 Intrests
• My key interests are summarised in the Make and Connect Agenda
•
• Also:
•
• Studies where everyday people are invited to make things or media products, giving some
insights into their relationship with media culture
•
• Creative study of the ways in which individuals use media products in the construction of
their own narratives of the self, and self-identity
•
• Digital media being used by everyday people -- Web 2.0.
•
• Work linking qualitative research on audiences with contemporary critical approaches.
•
• Research which tries to get to grips with the 'power' of the media on the one hand, and the
agency of audiences on the other ... but not 'media effects.
