He is the author of Phonographies: Grooves in Sonic Afro-Modernity (2005) and Habeas Viscus: Racializing Assemblages, Biopolitics, and Black Feminist Theories of the Human (2014). Currently, he is working on two projects. The first, »Feenin: R&B’s Technologies of Humanity,« offers a critical history of the intimate relationship between R&B music and technology since the late 1970s. The second, »Black Life/SchwarzSein,« situates Blackness as an ungendered ontology of unbelonging.
