I’m AV Flox. AV–like audio/visual. I’m a Peruvian ex-pat living in Southern California. I write about the web—the people in it, the things we’re doing, the customs we’re adopting, and the things we’re leaving behind as we venture forth into this uncharted territory of trial-and-error, where more and more, the digital is colliding with the analog.

I believe in understanding materiality while acknowledging the cathartic properties of the overshare, and think it’s imperative to be as polite on the internet as we were taught to be IRL.

I also write weekly relationships columns for BlogHer, Twirlit and Manolith, and worked for John Bowe on an original crowd-sourced book about American views on love, which will be coming out on February 14, 2010.

For fun, I dig absorbing obscene quantities of data, sitting around in cafes, visiting new places, eating, sipping coffee, lounging poolside, viewing art, making art, writing, wandering around botanical gardens, and tweeting. My tweets are not for the faint of heart–remember that thing about the cathartic properties of oversharing? I do that on Twitter. You’ve been warned. A work-focused version of my tweets can be found at @omgomgomfg.

My life goal is to see all the world’s Foucault’s pendula.
