Please note Dr Mulvin will be on sabbatical leave during Winter Term 2025. See term dates.
Dr Dylan Mulvin is Associate Professor in the Department of Media and Communications at LSE, where he also serves as Programme Director for the MSc Media and Communications.
Dr Mulvin is a historian of media, technology, and culture. Drawing on methods from media studies, Science and Technology Studies, gender studies, and disability studies, Dr Mulvin investigates the intersecting history of culture and technology, and the ways media artefacts encode and crystallise assumptions about human perception, emotion, and behaviour. In other words, he studies the ways people make the stuff that we take for granted and what happens when it all falls apart. He is the author of Proxies: the Cultural Work of Standing In (published open access with MIT Press). He is currently writing a monograph on the history of anger, art, and media titled Technologies of Rage.
