Rhythm
At the core of my research interests is the concept of rhythm and its history, as well as an ongoing development of a rhythmanalytical approach which can produce novel frameworks for thinking about, responding to, and reinventing everyday life.

Rhythms of Everyday Life in Plato’s “Laws”
Click above to watch a talk I gave in January 2022 as part of the "Art of Everyday Life" seminar series organised by Dr Jonjo Brady and Dr Robert Porter at Ulster University.
This talk, part of the research for my monograph Rhythm: New Trajectories in Law, discusses Plato’s lesser discussed musicalised vision of citizenship.
Revisiting the Rhythmanalytical Project
Click above to watch a talk I gave in April 2024 entitled "Revisiting the Rhythmanalytical Project" as part of a research symposium series on "Exploring Rhythmanalysis as a Method" organised by the Temporalities, Rhythms & Complexities Lab at the Sunkhronos Institute.
The talk tries to articulate elements of my evolving approach to rhythmanalysis, here articulated in terms of a multi-levelled analysis across three scales: the biorhythmic, the cosmorhythmic, and the technosocial rhythmic.

Renewing the Rhythmanalytical Project
Click above to watch the a double-book launch, in May 2024, of my two monographs, in which I tried to contextualise my more recent book - Contemporary Capitalism and Mental Health: Rhythms of Everyday Life alongside my first, Rhythm: New Trajectories in Law, as part of an ongoing set of contributions to the field of rhythmanalysis.
This was facilitated and organised by Dr Peter Marshall as part of the 2nd Annual Workshops in Political Theory at the University of Kent.
