I’m a Ramón & Cajal research fellow + professor at Universitat de Barcelona, Faculty of Information & Audiovisual Media (FIMA). Member of Centre of Research in Information, Communication and Culture (CRICC) & Women & Wikipedia research group. President Platoniq Foundation & coop member femProcomuns. Previously postdoctoral researcher at Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC), at U1284 INSERM Université Paris Cité – Peer-Produced Research Lab & at Austrian Academy of Sciences. Co-founder of the open source Goteo.org platform for civic crowdfunding & the pliegOS.net open publishing initiative.
I work in transdisciplinary research, co-creation methodologies & knowledge sharing from a (digital)humanities + (open)science & technology studies angle. I’m currently experimenting with (co/auto/poly)ethnography, exploring fanzine practices & documenting art-based approaches in community settings. I’m especially interested in civic technologies, social & solidarity economy, & intersectional perspectives. I can help with participatory design facilitation + networking & caring around the Commons + citizen science / research mentoring.
