My research is based in Cameroon where I work on many topics with Mambila people. I have worked on spider divination, the history of Cameroonian photography and endangered languages near the Nigerian border. A book on divination came out in 2020. A short theory book will be published in the autumn of 2022: "An anthropological toolkit"
