Sean Cubitt is currently researching the history of visual technologies, media art history, and relationships between environmental and post-colonial criticism of film and media, three strands that converge around the political economy of globalization and aesthetics. Sean has worked in Canada, New Zealand and Australia, and has an interest in the film and media of these countries, and has ongoing research collaborations and honorary appointments at the Universities of Dundee and Melbourne. He is on the editorial boards of a number of journals including Screen, Cultural Politics, Animation, International Journal of Cultural Politics, Visual Communications, Futures, Time and Society, fibreculture, MIRAJ and The New Review of Film and television Studies, and he is series editor for Leonardo Books, MIT Press. He is half of the thriller-writing team Lambert Nagle.
He has supervised fifteen PhDs to completion with three more under examination, several including research by creative practice. Topics include net art, Wikipedia, Clint Eastwood, ICT for development, meteorological art, creative practice research models, digital documentary, high-definition television, heterotopias, television history, collaborative models in online environments, games sound, interactive arts and the British film avant-garde. He has examined 32 PhD theses, again including many employing creative practice. He is especially interested in proposals on the history and archeology of media, media arts, ecocriticism and postcolonial studies of film and media.
