I am an Associate Professor at Swinburne University, Melbourne, Australia. I research the connections between digital content, cultural institutions and communication. I'm currently chief investigator of the Australian Research Council funded Engaging with Social Media project which explores the impact of social media on museum learning and communication. Between 2005 and 2008 I led the New Literacy New Audiences project (http://www.cci.edu.au/projects/new-literacy-new-audiences) which explored the creation of digital cultural content and its distribution across cultural networks. My PhD (2004, Media Museum: Sites of Virtual Display) explored the impact of new media on museum communication. You can find more information on this at http://nlablog.wordpress.com
