    Expertise

    Ryan Engley researches the intersection of psychoanalytic theory and media studies. His current book manuscript casts the notion of seriality as a primary social and cultural formation, claiming that the serial has a primary place in psychic life. The book explores this by looking to varied forms of serial media, from podcasts, to streaming television鈥檚 binge culture, to film serials past and present, and to social media. Along with Todd McGowan, Engley co-hosts the podcast Why Theory, which brings Continental philosophy and psychoanalytic theory together to examine contemporary phenomena.
