DR EARVIN CHARLES CABALQUINTO
I am a Lecturer in Communication in the School of Communication and Creative Arts (SCCA) at Deakin University. I was a Visiting Scholar in the Centre for Mobilities Research (Cemore) at Lancaster University in June 2019. I am a member of the Alfred Deakin Institute for Citizenship and Globalisation. Further, I am one of the convenors of the Asia-Pacific Digital Culture & Society in Melbourne, Australia.
My research expertise lies at the intersections of digital media, mobilities and migration. More specifically, I am interested in examining the role of mobile devices and networked communication platforms in engendering and undermining transnational relationships, mediated intimacies, caregiving at a distance, crisis communication, and homeland linkages. As a digital media scholar, I also engage with the nuances and politics of digital media use across diverse contexts, including the mobilisation of interracial relationships, the mediation of professional carework, as well as control and surveillance in networked spaces.
My research has been published in top peer-reviewed journals, including Mobile Media & Communication, Media Culture & Society, International Journal of Communication, and Information Communication & Society, as well as in edited book collections. I am currently working my first book based on my PhD thesis. Additionally, I am working on a collaborative book project that seeks to unpack the role of online platforms in enabling transnational subjectivity, postcolonial networked publics, and the construction of mobile imaginaries.
