Dr. Geraci will discuss how we use technology to enchant and give meaning to the
world. To study this, he uses ethnographic fieldwork, methods from science and
technology studies (especially actor-network theory), literature (science fiction)
studies, and the hodgepodge of methods that all who research “religion and science
studies” put to use.
Dr. Robert Geraci has been a visiting researcher at Carnegie Mellon’s Robotics
Institute, the Indian Institute of Science, and the National Institute for Advanced
Studies in Bangalore, India. Dr. Geraci is a Fellow of the International Society for
Science and Religion. He enjoys hiking, kayaking, and Dungeons & Dragons.
