• Postmodern politics: war and the possibilities for peace. I am especially interested in the relationship between technoscience and postmodern political institutions and processes, such as the evolution of democracy, nation-state devolution, empire, institutional and cultural internationalism, leadership, and the resurgence of nationalism and tribalism, all addressed in Peace, War, and Computers (Routledge, 2005). Have submitted a proposal for a book, War Words, with Susan Maret to Westview. Now starting a new project on technology, social change, and national identity focused on Egypt, Spain, Argentina and Cuba.


• Information theory. The book Infoisms: Aphorisms on Information, is underway and is committed to Routledge for the series Virus.


• Political, artistic and ethical implications of cyborgs. This work continues with such topics as brain monitoring and control technologies, and art theory and practice. I publish consistently in this area and currently I am working with Steven Mentor, Lissette Olivares, and Jennifer Gonzalez on a special issue of TeknoKultura on Cyborgs and Race. I hope to make it an art exhibit and also, one day, do an exhibition called Cyborg Squared, a meta-exhibit about previous cyborg art exhibits.
  


• An ongoing interest in computer-assisted learning (aka hybrid learning or distributed learning), in information technology and business, and many other practical issues of human-computer communication is reflected in my work as a consultant and writer in the computer industry and my on-line and multimedia courses and presentations such as the Cyborg Database project (cyborgdb.org) and my work helping students rewrite Wikipedia.

My book on effective learning and how it can be applied with computers (specifically Square One's Phoenix Program which I helped design) is called Power-Learning: Developing Effective Study Skills (Merced, CA: Educational Operating Systems, 1992).

As a technical writer I have also been the principle writer and editor of several software manuals, two guides for computer-based training (CBT) programs, the on-screen text for almost 100 CBT lessons and the translation of dozens of production and maintenance manuals into multimedia environments.

Published numerous articles on social and scientific issues in political journals and popular magazines such as Punch, in the U.S., England, Spain, and the Czech Republic; co-authored three booklets on community organizing, and authored a novel (It Could Be Magic) and a memoir (19th Year) posted on-line and a dozen short stories, one published ("Limits of Faith" in Chinquapin, 1986). I continue to write fiction.
