Hi! I’m Dr. Teddy Max Pozo, a scholar and artist based in Los Angeles. My art practice combines ceramic sculpture with conductive elements and original video game designs to produce unique tactile and intimate experiences. You can read my articles in such journals as Feminist Media Histories, TSQ, Game Studies, and Camera Obscura: Feminism, Culture, and Media Studies. My book project, Touchy Feely Games, is about haptic technology and haptic aesthetics in queer and trans interactive media, from movie theater gimmicks, to virtual reality, to video games. I am an Assistant Professor of Computer Science and Advisory Faculty in Media Arts and Culture at Occidental College. Some examples of my games and my students’ games can be found at drpozo.itch.io.
