Megen de Bruin-Molé
Dr Megen de Bruin-Molé (she/any) is Associate Professor of Digital Media Practice with the Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton, Co-Director of the Critical Infrastructures and Image Politics (CIIP) research group, and Co-Director of the London Science Fiction Research Community. She specialises in ‘monstrous’ adaptation and contemporary remix culture, in particular the digital afterlives and appropriations of historical archives, ephemera, and memory in popular culture. Her book Gothic Remixed (Bloomsbury 2020) examines popular remix culture through the lens of monster studies, and her co-edited collection Embodying Contagion (UWP/Open Access 2021) explores how fantasies of outbreak narratives have infiltrated the way people view the real world. She is also the author of numerous academic articles on remix, historical fiction, and popular culture.
Megen is also an editor with the Critical Posthumanism Network’s GenealogyÂproject, and co-edited the Palgrave Handbook of Critical Posthumanism.
