Angela Xiao Wu is an Associate Professor in Media, Culture and Communication at NYU. Focusing on the infrastructures and politics of knowledge production, her scholarship has engaged with critical data studies, audience analytics, computational methods, and post/socialism studies. As a fellow, she will work on a book, Mass Speech Administration: From the Socialist Press to Platform Atmospherics, which examines how public culture takes shape when systems thinking informs its conception and governance. Wu works at the intersection of media and communication, science and technology studies, and China studies. Angela’s research combines humanities and social science methods, from oral and archival histories to quantitative analyses of web traffic and social media traces. Her past work includes the examination of Chinese media and politics beyond the oppression-resistance binary, and the analysis of macro-patterns of media use in relation to technological environments.
