Trivedi’s research explores the tension between creative production and institutional pressures, with articles like Working in Slow Collapse (2023) addressing academic labor. He received the Poetry Book Society Recommendation for his collection Your Relationship to Motion Has Changed (2019). His teaching emphasizes rethinking pedagogy in an era of declining respect for intellectual labor, as discussed in Respect on Campus (2019).
