Biography
āDr. Carlos Gabriel Kelly GonzĆ”lez specializes in U.S. Latinx studies and critical game studies. He works to infuse Latinx ways of seeing into video game studies through borderlands perspectives and lived/embodied experience. He earned his Ph.D. from Ohio State University and is on a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Latinx Arts, Literatures, Cultures, or Religions at the Humanities Research Center at Rice University. His forthcoming book Ready Player Juan: Latinx Masculinities and Stereotypes in Video Games comes out November 14, 2023, with University of Arizona press and will be the first book to deploy U.S. Latinx studies (via border and performance theory) to interrogate AAA action-adventure video games. You can find his piece on Hellblade: Senuaās Sacrifice in Cultural Studies in the Digital Age by Hyperbole press. Currently, Carlos is thrilled to be co-editing the first ever collection of Latinx video game studies Coded Latinx: Latinx Gaming and Game Studies in North America with Dr. Regina Marie Mills. In addition to his research, Carlos is also a published performance poet with his 2019 debut collection Wounds Fragments Derelict published with 2Leaf Press.āāā
