Teaching

My teaching has supported undergraduate, MA, MFA, and PhD programs in art history, studio art, digital arts, cinema and media studies, and media/art/culture.

I have particular experience in project based learning, team-teaching, and pedagogies that mix history, theory, and hands-on experimentation.

This year I’m developing a new course with a computational astrophysicist on the history of astronomical visualization. It will bring together undergraduate artists, art historians, and astronomy majors to examine and create representations of the cosmos.
