Something like a scholar-writer or poet-archaeologist. My disparate research interests include semiotics, animal history, ethnobiology, hauntology, Western esotericism, and the historical archaeology of Central California. I often write on these topics at my blog trXiv (a play on the famous arXiv physics preprint repository, if you were wondering, which you weren't.) These are mostly half-baked ideas that I may or may not expand on in other venues, so please don't expect high-quality research.
My public-facing email is me [at] tracefleemangarica.com.
