Brian Croxall
Brian Croxall is a visiting assistant professor of English at Clemson University. Receiving a Commodore 64 for Christmas when he was 7 provoked a lifelong fascination with technology. His consequent/current research into how the discourse of trauma is powered by technological metaphors allows him to read and teach across 150 years of American literature. When he’s not busy with that, his work in the digital humanities concerns the visualization of space and time, and he has developed tutorials for doing the latter.
In addition, Brian blogs on occasion, writes about music, loves board games, and tweets about the academic jobmarket. He doesn’t leave the house without USB cables or a novel.
