bio:

My name is Josef Nguyen, and I am a third-year English PhD student at U.C. Davis. In addition to books, I also really like science.

I am a graduate of the University of the Pacific, in Stockton, California. I received a B.S. in Computer Science and a B.A.English in 2007. I then attended U.C. Irvine, receiving an M.S. in Arts Computation Engineering (A.C.E.) in 2009.

My main academic interests include but are not limited to:

• scientific governance
• municipal and global infrastructures
• science and technology studies
• ecocriticism
• posthumanism
• intersections of epistemology and ethics
• contemporary literature and science writing
• accidents, disasters, and crises
• spatial practices and digital technologies: video games, ubiquitous computing, and locative media
