    My research is based on the areas of new media technology and data languages.
    I have been working in projects for the REcall European Conflict Archeological Landscape Reappropriation in Berlin and Norway and doing research and design projects in Spain, France, Italy, and Germany. In 2013 I received the M4M European Prize that brought me the opportunity to design a project for the European Design Institute developing a series of cartographic systems and a book that ended up with an exhibition at the Center of Contemporary Art of Fabrics in Milan.
    Nowadays I lead the consultancy firm Domestic Data Streamers working in research and communication projects for cultural institutions, organizations, and companies such as California Academy of Sciences, Western Digital, UNICEF, Nike or the Mobile World Congress in gathering and communicating information in new data languages.
