I am Associate Professor and Director of the Center for the Humanities and Machine Learning at the University of California, Santa Barbara. My research focuses on the epistemology, aesthetics, and politics of artificial intelligence: I study how machine learning models represent culture and what is at stake when they do. My most recent book, Vector Media, writes the first comprehensive history and theory of vector space as a space of universal commensurability in contemporary machine learning. You can find a full list of my publications here, or email me to get in touch.
