Casper Laing Ebbensgaard is a Lecturer in Human Geography at the University of East Anglia's School of Environmental Sciences, affiliated with the Environmental Social Sciences and Science, Society and Sustainability research groups. He holds a Ph.D. from Queen's University and Roskilde University. His research focuses on the aesthetic and affective politics of urban design, nocturnal environments, and lighting technologies in vertical cities, exploring how these shape residents' sense of home and belonging.
His work includes a Leverhulme Early Career Fellowship (2018–2020), investigating high-rise living and nocturnal human-environment relations. Collaborations with artists and institutions like the Urban Night Project have led to public exhibitions and interdisciplinary outputs. Key research areas include temporalities of urban change, spatial justice, and the interplay between domestic spaces and public realms.
Teaching responsibilities include the 'Urban Futures' module and contributions to courses on urban geographies and the Anthropocene. His supervision of doctoral students addresses topics such as nocturnal governance in Accra and anarcho-queer spatial practices in Istanbul.
Publications highlight themes like light violence, vertical urbanism, and entangled temporalities. Awards include the Leverhulme Fellowship, and his interdisciplinary approach combines ethnography, visual methods, and artistic collaboration.
