His research focuses on urbanism and critical urban theory, on utopia and possible urban worlds, and on art, performance and the politics of space. His writings have ranged from the ideas and practices of avant-garde movements, particularly the situationists, to more contemporary forms of psychogeography, radical cartography, and artistic urban exploration and intervention.
