Speaker Details

Anna Watkins Fisher

Anna Watkins Fisher is an Assistant Professor in the Department of American Culture and the Digital Studies program at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Her research and teaching bring together debates in digital studies, performance studies, feminist and queer studies, and critical theory by examining how artists and media interventionists working within radical aesthetic traditions have adapted to respond to the ever-more coercive conditions of neoliberal and digital power. Her first book theorizes parasitism as a compromised tactic of resistance in 21st-century art and politics. She is the co-editor, with Wendy Hui Kyong Chun, of the 2nd edition of New Media, Old Media: A History and Theory Reader (Routledge, 2015).
