She has also co-authored an online, open-access textbook in Greek, entitled Digital Ethnography (2015). Penelope is co-founder of the Pelion Summer Lab for Cultural Theory and Experimental Humanities and on the editorial board of the online, open-access Greek feminist journal φεμινιστιqά / feministiqά.
