Hello, my name is Lachlan Brown and I do Cultural Studies.

Anyone got a problem with that?

My research based at Goldsmiths College, University of 
London, traced some of the meanings of ‘technology’ 
as a symptom of broader social and cultural forces among
several producer and consumer constituents of Internet from 
March 1993 through to mid-September 2001.

The research was carried out with respect to the fields of 
ideas, aesthetics and belief; policy, governance and politics; 
regulation, legislation and the law in a number of institutional 
locations  appropriate to each field: early digital cultural art, 
publishing and idea contexts; educational contexts; industry 
contexts.

The methodology involved a participant action research 
that included developing an early online publication called 
'difference engine', teaching, and work in the industry. 

This research was conducted part time within the constraints 
of work and family life. 

I live in Toronto, Canada, where I worked as editor prior to 
beginning research into the field at Goldsmiths College, 
University of London and spend a couple of months per 
year in London, England.

Having completed my research I am now implementing 
a non-profit online publishing initiative as well as a 
commercial publishing company focused in arts and 
education.

I am originally from Liverpool, England.
