Hello and welcome to alexdefreitas.net. The site began, as Bruno Latour would put it, 'neither for the sake of epistemic reflexivity nor for some narcissist indulgence into one's own work'. I'm Alex, a PhD candidate at The University of Auckland doing my best to explore our changing understandings of public spaces which are no longer fixed physical spaces; rather, relational, contingent realities comprised of bodies, networks, objects, flows of information and stuff like that. In order to do this effectively, I think it's important to keep track of where I've been. So that's where you are now. Consider it just one possible way of assembling a story. The production diary of a Phd. Me attempting to add in a 'messy way to a messy account of a messy world'.
