3 BIO NOTES Anna Boswell Anna Boswell teaches Writing Studies at the University of Auckland. She talks and writes about settler-colonialism in terms of inscription, institutionality and pedagogy, and has recently been the recipient of prizes and postdoctoral research awards from the Kate Edger Educational Charitable Trust, the Journal of New Zealand Literature, and Auckland War Memorial Museum. Anna is also a founding co-editor of a journal of place/politics titled Argos Aotearoa and a member of the writing collective of the same name. Chris Cottrell Chris Cottrell is a lecturer in the Interior Design programme at RMIT University, where he is also currently studying towards his PhD. Previously he studied Architecture at the University of Auckland, and holds a Masters in Fine Art from the Edinburgh College of Art. His creative works operate in installation and performative art contexts to explore issues of spatial perception and representation. He has shown work extensively in New Zealand, Australia and the United Kingdom and held artist residencies in Slovenia, the Orkney Islands and Fox Glacier, New Zealand. Research projects are archived at Carl Douglas Carl Douglas is a lecturer at AUT University s School of Art and Design. Recent work has examined infrastructure as a determinant of public space, made a case study of urban transformations of revolutionary Paris, and researched archaeological sites as scenes of architectural production. Current design research attends to the structuring, or rather the infrastructuring of the city, through speculative project investigations into possible futures and potential reconfigurations of Auckland s Mangere Inlet. Hannah Hopewell Hannah is a PhD Candidate in the School of Art and Design at AUT University, Auckland, New Zealand. With a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture from UNITEC Institute of Technology, and a Masters of Urban Design from the University of Auckland, Hannah s professional practice has interdisciplinary foundations. Her current research develops post-critical site-writing towards an understanding of orders of material appearance and representation in the urban intertidal field. She puts into play registers of waste, and unseen materials as possible political constituencies and subjectivities, to question the urban waterfront as an assemblage of human value production. Hannah explores notions of care and indifference relative to intertidal material life through an economy plastic inter-subjective relations outside the ecological rhetorics of anthropocentric environmental crises Akari Kidd Akari Kidd is a PhD candidate at the School of Architecture, Victoria University of Wellington where she also teaches in the areas of architectural design and architectural criticism and theory at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Her current doctoral research explores the architectural and theoretical relations that can be drawn through the lens of affect. Akari has worked under architect Kengo Kuma in Japan and holds a Bachelor of Architecture from The Cooper Union in New York. Laura McLauchlan Laura is a doctoral candidate in the Environmental Humanities at the University of New South Wales, looking at urban human-hedgehog interactions. Presently, she is doing fieldwork in Bristol, hanging out with folks and hedgehogs in urban gardens. Moana Nepia Moana, a Māori visual and performing artist (choreographer, curator, video artist, painter, poet), completed the first practice-led PhD thesis in visual and performing arts rooted in Māori epistemologies, entitled Te Kore - Exploring the Māori Concept of Void, in He is now Assistant Professor at the Center for Pacific Islands Studies, University of Hawa i in Mānoa, where he helps develop new courses on arts and performance in the 3

4 Pacific. His research interests include visual arts, dance and performance studies in the Pacific, Indigenous epistemologies, and research through creative practice. Mirjana Lozanovska Mirjana Lozanovska is a Senior Lecturer and leads the Cultural Ecology Research Group at the School of Architecture and Building, Deakin University. Her research has developed multidisciplinary theories of space for the study and interpretation of architecture. These include critical theories on visual representation and psychoanalytic theories of human subjectivity that are drawn upon to examine migrant houses, villages and ethnic aesthetics; war and memory; and the spatial body. Jan Smitheram Jan Smitheram is a senior lecturer in the School of Architecture at Victoria University of Wellington where she teaches both undergraduate and postgraduate students. Extending work from her PhD she looks at the relationship between performance, performativity and affect within the context of architecture. Her recent research in collaboration with Simon Twose looks at architectural practice through the lens of performativity and affect. Her work is published in international journals and conference proceedings. Michael Tawa Michael Tawa is Professor of Architecture at the University of Sydney where he directs the Masters of Architecture program, and author of Agencies of the frame. Tectonic strategies in cinema and architecture (2010) and Theorising the project. A thematic approach to architectural design (2011). Sarah Treadwell Sarah Treadwell is an Associate Professor in architecture at The University of Auckland. Her research investigates the representation of architecture in colonial and contemporary images and proceeds with both writing and image making. She has written on representations of motels, gender, suburbs and volcanic conditions of ground, publishing in various books and journals including Architectural Theory Review, Space and Culture and Interstices.
