Kate Eichhorn:

"My research focuses on book and media history and contemporary innovative writing. I’m currently completing a book on archival genres, which include everything from Renaissance commonplace books to various contemporary platforms. I’m interested in how archival practices have and continue to structure compositional practices, as well as how they provide a way to think about some of the continuities linking communication practices from the incunabula to the present. Understanding the archive as a practice of everyday life, most of this book focuses on texts and objects made by anonymous or at least unknown creators." (IDC mailing list, June 2009)
