Dorothy Barenscott’s interdisciplinary research relates to the interplay between urban space and emerging media forms, and the role of technology and embodied vision in the articulation of a range of modern and postmodern identities. Barenscott’s publication record reflects these interests with examinations of painted panoramas, experimental cinema, modern architecture, and conceptual photography. Her work has appeared in publications such as Postmodern Culture Journal, Mediascape, Slovo, Left History, and Victorian Review. She has presented her work internationally at conferences and invited talks, and lectured on visual art and theory at the University of British Columbia, Simon Fraser University, and the University of Lethbridge.
