Profile


I am an associate professor at the Medialab of the University of Geneva, a researcher at the CNRS Centre for Internet & Society and a founding member of the Public Data Lab.

In 2017 and 2018, I have been a researcher at the École Normale Supérieure of Lyon and recipient of the “Advanced Research” fellowship of the French Institute for Computer Science and Automation. In 2016, I was a “digital methods lecturer” at the Department of Digital Humanities of King's College London. From 2009 to 2015, I coordinated the research activities of the médialab of Sciences Po Paris.

My research is positioned at the interface between social and human sciences and digital computation and design. My investigation activities focus on: Digital Methods, Digital Media Studies, Controversy Mapping, Science & Technology Studies, and more particularly on the attention economy (and its acceleration in online media) and Internet subcultures (and secondary orality phenomena).
