She is at work on two book projects: From Television's Avant-Garde to the Televisual and the Avant-Garde: 1968-1988 and _Cut, Shift, Paste: Sampling and the Site-Specific in Contemporary Art_. The first is a historical examination of the unintended consequences of the avant-garde's incursions into television in the 1970s and the 1980s. The latter takes as its subject contemporary -- or late 1990s to present -- works of art that live at the intersection of sampling and site-specificity. With Alice Crary she is a founding co-director of the Graduate Certificate in Gender and Sexuality Studies at The New School. In 2016, she is serving as the interim director of Visual Studies at Eugene Lang College. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Rochester's Graduate Program in Visual and Cultural Studies in 2009.
