Professional Summary
Interdisciplinary background in architecture, multimedia, and fine arts with focus on temporal ontology of textual production. PhD proposal examines embodied inscription through genetic manuscript analysis of American modernist poets (Williams, Olson), combining phenomenological theory (Merleau-Ponty, Derrida) and materialist ontology (Barad). Training in spatial design and artistic practice informs approaches to manuscript studies, archival documentation, and authentication of compositional process.
Research Interest
Temporal ontology and embodied textuality; genetic criticism and manuscript studies; American modernist poetry (Williams, Olson); phenomenology of inscription (Merleau-Ponty, Derrida, Barad); archival theory and material practices of writing; literary authentication in the age of algorithmic text generation; poetics and philosophy of compositional process.
