About

---

My name is Eric Fassbender, though you may see me online as wellrestedmango. I am a second year PhD student at Northwestern University, in the Media, Technology, and Society program. I live in Uptown Chicago with my two cats, Tippy and Nose. When I am not studying you will find me taking photos, messing around with defunct computers, and playing racquetball

Research

---

I research the ways that people form teams with and through technology. My current projects center around the ways that teams reconstruct their internal processes when adopting autonomous technologies. I root my work in Organizational Communication and Human-Machine Communication perspectives, studying technology use as a social process.
