I hold a PhD in Sociology (University of Exeter), a D.E.A. in Philosophy (University of Seville) and a M.A. in Political Science (Arizona State University). I study the multifarious connections between technology, politics, and society, from the platformization of social movements, the public sphere, political parties and States to the construction and sociotechnical governance of data and digital infrastructures. I do it by entangling academic research, technological development, social innovation and political action. Currently, some of the projects I lead are D2, Vector, Datapolitik, and Atenea Cyborg, while I participate in others such as Outonomy and Decidim. In previous years I participated in many more, with DECODE, D-CENT and Interidentity among the most relevant. Since 2018 am coordinator of the Tecnopolitica research unit of the Communication Networks and Social Change at the IN3.
