David Rambo is currently a postdoctoral associate at Duke University with the Program in Literature, where he earned a PhD in 2018. His research and teaching span contemporary fiction and media, the technological nature of human experience, process philosophy, and phenomenology. Rambo’s essays have been published in Computational Culture, Process Studies, Angelaki, and Post-Cinema: Theorizing 21st-Century Film (REFRAME 2016). His current book project, Inventing Media, argues that technology ought to be understood primarily as a process that mediates between disparate phenomena and secondarily as technical objects and prostheses.

David also enjoys tinkering and making things, which has entered into his work at the humanities lab S-1: Speculative Sensation as well as in his research on media aesthetics and technoculture. You can see his QMK (Quantum Mechanical Keyboard) code on GitHub for a few ortholinear keyboards: keeb.io's Iris, OLKB's Planck and Preonic, and the XD75.
