As lead researcher, I examined the mediation of the body in the digital age: how embodiment translates online, the aesthetics economy and its effects on subjectivity and social life, and the psychophysical transformations it engenders. I also investigated the spectacle of the Black female body within white societies.

As part of the inaugural Infinities Commission by artist, DJ and producer Christelle Oyiri. In a perpetual remix where is my song? is a work made specially by Oyiri for the Tanks, Tate Modern’s unique spaces dedicated to performance, installation and film. This is an audio-visual installation made up of sculpture, sound, music, video and light. With this work the artist draws similarities between techniques used by DJs, such as cutting and repetition, and those used in cosmetic surgery and online image-making technologies.
