Trosolwyg
As a lecturer in Urban Design I seek to explore the interrelatoinship of people, place, and power through the critical analysis of cities. More broadly my research explores themes of food, housing, and urbanism as ways of both critiquing Westernised space and proposing practical models of alternative political agency.
My ongoing research projects include explorations of urban food, the ‘slow city’ movement, and the history / future of anarchist plotlander housing in the UK.

Meysydd goruchwyliaeth
Mae gen i ddiddordeb bob amser mewn goruchwylio myfyrwyr PhD sy'n edrych i archwilio theori athronyddol gyfoes - yn arbennig realaeth hapfasnachol, ôl-ddyneiddiaeth, a materoliaeth newydd. Gallai prosiectau o'r fath holi cwestiynau cymdeithasol, diwylliannol, polistaidd ac economaidd ar draws cyd-destunau mor amrywiol â dylunio, dinasoedd, cynaliadwyedd, ecoleg, bwyd, ac ati.
