Short Biography:
Currently based in Bilbao area, I work part-time at my studio Hybridoa.org where I develop projects and public workshops that focus on the production of new knowledge through bio-practices of media, open-source, software development and speculative design methodology. Influenced by ethno-fiction, feminist theory and speculative design methodology, I focus on intimate interdependencies between humans and more-than-human people, while critically engaging with technology in order to create alternative “near futures”.
I nourish (from) and believe (in) people, designers/artists/hackers collaborating in alternative spaces, having the power to innovate and subvert the Anthropocene and the dominating role of traditional science and technology. currently strengthening my technical software development skills in 42 Urduliz.
