I am a PhD Candidate in Digital Culture within the Algorithmic Folklore project, affiliated with the Center for Digital Narrative (CDN) at the Department of Linguistic, Literary and Aesthetic Studies. As part of the ALGOFOLK project, I study the intersection of folklore, theory, and conspiracy, with a focus on speculative futures and imaginaries of technology. I am particularly interested in the rhetorical factors that shape the development and dissemination of these theories, utilizing qualitative research methods.
