Nicholas S. Anderson

I am a recent graduate from the Joint Program in Communication and Culture at York University and Ryerson University with a specialization in media and culture.

My ongoing research involves an investigation of the cultural significance of robots, androids, and other artificial life forms as a means to probe the limits of modern biopolitics and to interrogate the (bio)ethical implications borne out by technological re-articulations of the concept of life. Interdisciplinary in scope and method, my scholarship is situated at the crossroads of literary and rhetorical studies, continental philosophy, critical media theory, and ethics.
