Oli is a lecturer in Human Geography at Royal Holloway, University of London. His research focuses urban communities and processes flourishing in the face of political and economic pressures, social unrest and cultural division.

His blog, taCity is about the tacit city and focuses on the aspects of urbanism that are intangible, mediated, exploited and subverted.

Specifically, his research interests cut across a number of traditional academic themes such as urban politics, architecture, creativity, cultural studies and social theory. He has published work on the creative practices of cities (both those that contribute to capitalist accumulation and those that try to resist it), the theory of networks, the representation of cities in film and labour in the creative economy. Currently, he is engaged in work on urban politics, creativity and social justice. His monograph 'Urban Subversion and the Creative City' was published by Routledge in April 2015.
