Research

I’ve spent the past several years consulting for startups and researching generative AI tools to develop new approaches to digital filmmaking. For the past two years, I’ve been building something new combining various open source and proprietary models (more soon).

In 2013, I joined the faculty at The New School and oversaw the creation of the Creative Technologies concentration in the BFA School of Drama program. I’ve taught design, technology and media courses at the graduate and undergraduate levels. Additionally, I’ve mentored and facilitated project-based training at the MFA level for media and design practices for the integration of video into live performance.

I’ve helped to program narrative short films for The Lower East Side Film Festival. I’ve been on the narrative film juries for The Brooklyn Film Festival, Indie Street Film Festival, New York No Limits Film Festival, and the RAIN+ Festival in Barcelona.

I wrote a chapter about Bill Morrison’s 2006 short film Porch for the Amsterdam University Press book on his work. I conducted interviews for and helped edit the theatre design imprint Chance Magazine.

I studied filmmaking as a undergraduate at Saint John’s University in NYC and earned my MFA in Writing for TV & Film at Emerson College in Boston and LA. I’m obsessed with moving images.
