Hi! My name’s Grant Wythoff. I work at Princeton’s Center for Digital Humanities. I’m co-founder of a cooperative mesh network & digital equity organization called Philly Community Wireless, I edit a journal for experimental research in the humanities called Startwords, and I wrote a book called The Perversity of Things about science fiction’s roots in the 1910s maker movement.
Details on my research & teaching are ↑, a place for pruning in-progress ideas is ↓. You can read about what I’m up to now. And more about this website and how I built it can be found in the colophon.
