Kelsey’s research explores sex robots within the posthuman social fabric. Deeply rooted in Feminist and Queer Theory and Science and Technology Studies, her work seeks to understand the implications of increasingly present erotic technologies on understandings of reality. Through this, in examining the way these technologies dissolve binary boundaries of personhood, Kelsey hopes her work contributes to building and supporting a more equitable, harmonious and pleasurable more-than-human world.

 

This academic exploration is a continuation of her field work and thesis completed for her MA in Sociocultural Anthropology at Columbia University. Prior to this, she received a BA in the College Scholar Program at Cornell University, before then going on to live and work throughout China.
