Laurie Gries (PhD, Syracuse University) studies how images circulate, transform, and contribute to collective life and has developed a digital research method called iconographic tracking to help do this research. She is author of Still Life with Rhetoric: A New Materialist Approach for Visual Rhetorics (2015) and co-editor of Circulation, Writing, and Rhetoric (2018) as well as the digital book collection Doing Digital visual Studies: One Image, Multiple Methodologies (2022). She is also invested in developing research methods for new materialist rhetorical studies, which you can read about in her 2020 College English article titled “New Materialist Ontobiography: A Critical-creative Approach for Coping and Caring in the Chuthulucene.” Working in tight relationship with with other English faculty, Gries currently coordinates the new Writing and Public Engagement Minor and serves as Associate Director of Graduate Studies for the Program for Writing and Rhetoric (PWR).
