About the Author

Pattie Belle Hastings is an artist and designer whose creative work deals specifically with art/technology, life/technology, motherhood/technology and feminism/technology.

During the 2008/2009 academic year I lived and worked in Oslo, Norway for an art/research project on the creative uses and misuses of mobile devices. I’m now back in New Haven, Connecticut continuing to work on things I started in Oslo. The Mobile Misuse project is supported in part by a Fulbright Scholar grant, an American-Scandinavian Foundation grant, and by a Quinnipiac University research sabbatical.
