Il s'intéresse aux " langages de la création " et a engagé plusieurs projets dialogiques avec des artistes du monde de la danse contemporaine, ce qui l'a par exemple amené à publier un livre intitulé Are we here yet ? (2010) en collaboration avec Meg Stuart. Il a également publié le livre d'art We don't know what free jazz is (2015), l'essai Reseeding the library, gleaning readership (2018), une série d'essais sur le travail de Mette Edvardsen, Something Some things Something else (2019), le livre d'art Bookmarks of sorts (2021) et le manuel And then it got legs : Notes on dance dramaturgy (2022).
