Summary

I am a researcher interested in cognition as a natural and situated phenomenon that arises from sensorimotor interaction, with a particular focus on the role of the technological environment in shaping behaviour. This has lead me to undertake my PhD under the supervision of Xabier Barandiaran, with the aim to research on how digital technologies and their design shape our autonomy as agents. As part of my PhD I have visited the Department of Philosophy @ UC Berkeley (US), the Department of Computer Science @ Aarhus University (Denmark) and the Internet Interdisciplinary Institute (IN3) @ UOC (Barcelona).
