David Parry, Ph.D. School of Arts and Humanities
Assistant Professor of emerging media and communications
David Parry studies the ways in which people communicate in the digital age, and prepares students to use media — both vehicles currently in existence and those which haven't yet been created.
Dr. Parry's research addresses how contemporary theory can help answer questions about how technology, and langauge as technology, shape the act of reading. He also examines the ways knowledge changes as media for transmission and archivization become digital.
Parry earned his Ph.D. in English from the University at Albany (SUNY).
