Teaching

 

Alongside my work as a writer I have always taught, I am currently Professor of Interdisciplinary Writing at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design, University of Dundee, and Visiting Professor at Hochschule für Gestaltung Offenbach am Main, Frankfurt and Research Fellow at Amsterdam School for Cultural Analysis, University of Amsterdam (2018) ans have held posts at Goldsmiths College, University of Edinburgh and Northumbria University. I teach across disciplines and levels recently focussing on working with practitioners developing formally innovative PhD projects.

I convene Practice Research Assembly hosted by The Scottish Garaduate School of Art & Design.

In addition to academic teaching, I mentor emerging and established writers and artists, leading hybrid and experimental writing workshops at places like Arvon and Faber Academy.

I am Principal Investigator on the AHRC-funded network De-localising Dialect with Dr Scott Hames from Stirling University, with workshops led by Denise Riley, Lisa Robertson and Harry Josephine Giles, amongst many others.
