Profile
My research is in the intersectionality of sustainability and material culture, particularly in textiles. I have additional intersts in renaissnace witch trials, music, and classical mythology.
Research interests
My interest is in the readaptation of natural materials, tools, and methods, specifically related to textiles. Upon rediscovering the characteristics and optimal applications of wool (linen, hemp, etc), we can utilize them to replace the disastrous choice of petroleum-based plastics.
