About
Currently I am the principal investigator on 'Assembling the line: amateur & professional work, skills and practice in digital video editing', funded by the ESRC, working together with Barry Brown & Ignaz Strebel. Although officially completed, as is the way with university research projects, I continue to work on the ESRC funded 'Habitable cars: the organisation of collective private transport' with Barry Brown & Hayden Lorimer. Alongside this I organise the Scottish Ethnomethodology, Discourse, Interaction & Technology group (SEDIT) with Sue Widdicombe & Claire Haggett, and various activities of the Human Geography Research Group at the School of Geosciences, Edinburgh. Previously I was the PI on 'The Cappuccino Community: Cafes and Civic Life in the Contemporary City', carried out with Chris Philo, and before that I had an Urban Studies Research Fellowship which allowed me to pursue research on community practices in the city. The latter drew on ethnographic fieldwork on neighborhoods and community in an Edinburgh suburb as part of the Living Memory Project. From 1997 onwards I was the principal researcher on an ESRC funded project: 'Meet You At Junction 17: a socio-technical and spatial study of the mobile office', again with Chris Philo as a co-applicant.
