Who is Dynamic Subspace?

Hello! I'm Jason Ellis and I share my interdisciplinary research and pedagogy on DynamicSubspace.net. It includes posts that explore science, technology, and cultural issues through science fiction and neuroscientific approaches. Also, I write about retrocomputing, LEGO building, and other forms of making.

I am an Associate Professor of English at the New York City College of Technology, CUNY (City Tech) where I am the Director of the Professional and Technical Writing Program and teach classes on technical communication, law and literature, and science fiction.

I hold a Ph.D. in English from Kent State University, M.A. in Science Fiction Studies from the University of Liverpool, and B.S. in Science, Technology, and Culture from Georgia Tech.

I can be reached by email at jellis at citytech dot cuny dot edu.
