My work looks at the mutual constitution of, on the one hand, ideas, social relations and practices and, on the other hand, urban and material forms. I have worked on the social construction of heritage, the role of the visual in urban planning, the geography of architecture, processes of urban globalization, smart urbanism and urban geographies of mental health.

The introduction then discusses the concepts that are central to the book – urban data politics, data power in action crises –, explains the structure of the book and highlights the main arguments of its chapters.
and noise – is experienced by people walking in the city; it particularly
focuses on atypical populations such as people diagnosed with
psychosis, who are reported to be particularly sensitive to noisy environments.
Through an analysis of video-recordings of naturalistic
activities in an urban context and of video-elicitations based on these
recordings, the study details the way participants orient to sound and
noise in naturalistic settings, and how sound and noise are reported
and reexperienced during interviews. By bringing together urban context,
psychosis and social interaction, this study shows that, thanks to
video recordings and conversation analysis, it is possible to analyse in
detail the multimodal organization of action (talk, gesture, gaze, walking
bodies) and of the sensory experience(s) of aural factors, as well
as the way this organization is affected by the ecology of the situation.
