Asimov once wrote that, “It is more fun to be jack-of-all trades, than master of one.” It is a philosophy that I have embraced and nurtured throughout my eclectic academic career. As a PhD student, I delved into the media and culture of surveillance theories to explore how face-based surveillance strategies in the 20th and 21st centuries are augmenting Faucauldian constructs of institutionalized control over the docile body. During my postdoc with the Faculty of Engineering at the Identity Privacy and Security Institute, I extended my ideas by looking at algorithmic surveillance strategies associated with biometrics generally and face-recognition technologies specifically. At the University of Toronto Mississauga’s Institute of Communication Culture and Information Technology I taught courses on technological innovation, online collaboration and legal issues surrounding the deployment of ICT’s, and at the Knowledge Media Design Institute (as the Director of the Collaborative Program and later the Assistant Director), I worked to improve the student experience by working to establish a strong interdisciplinary network of students and scholars focused on studying media culture and design.
