Good news. The Critical Code Studies book is out!
This spring brings the publication of my new book Critical Code Studies (MIT Press). That coincides with the 6th biennial Critical Code Studies Working Group! We’re giving Salt Immortal Sea its own website complete with teaching materials. The kids and I are at work on Mrs. Wobbles 5, “The Land Down Under,” which my daughter is directing. Meanwhile, the Buzzademia editors, Kim Knight and Anne Cong-Huyen, and I just launched our special issue of Hyperrhiz. And I’ve returned my attention to the musical! UPDATE: The kids and I have started writing a webcomic called Coronation about our family’s experience during the Corona Virus quarantine.
