I’m Ash Watson, a sociologist and writer interested in fiction, futures, data and zines. I do research with the Vitalities Lab at UNSW, Sydney.

Research

My primary project is an ARC funded study of how people make sense of/with personal data generating technologies now and for the future. I also do work on sociological fiction, and queer community story-mapping.

Latest

My latest sole-authored journal article ‘Methods Braiding‘ has been published in volume 25, issue 1, of Sociological Research Online.

My debut novel Into the Sea is forthcoming this year with Brill.
