My research

My work aims to contribute to crafting new ways of thinking about changes in sensory modalities and material-semiotic practices in the globalised world. I conduct ethnographic research, which involves working with audio and audiovisual recordings. Apart from being interested in the method, I analyze both how sensorimotor capacities are entangled in bodily experiences and how they are embedded in their sociocultural and technological contexts. My research examines scale-making practices among transnational individuals and groups, their embodied enactments and entanglement in network cultures and specific rearrangements of materials. So far, I have worked mostly in the context of migrations to the UK and from Poland and Eastern Europe. Below you can learn more about my major projects and publications about communicative encounters in transnational space.
