Participation, feedback, transparency, ethics

During 2011 I'll be involved in a research project with people of the team of Anesvad. This organization is a NGO with more than 40 years of experience in cooperation, working in the three poorest continents on the planet. They work to promote and protect health as a Fundamental Right, while encouraging social change to tackle the structural causes of poverty, inequality and social exclusion.
 

Phd thesis: Games and research processes

I've recently started the research for my Phd Thesis.
The theme is yet very broad: games and rearch processes. Through this research, I would like to build upon the knowledge generated in my last few projects, since all of them have been dealing with research processes and games as social and cognitive technology.
The main challenge here is how to research about research...
I will be sharing the research process in the blog section of this website.

Grid Spinoza

Grid Spinoza is an exploration about artistic and scientific research. It is a project by Hangar - Centre for Experimentation and Artistic Production and the Biomedical Research Park of Barcelona (PRBB). Both entities share their network of knowledge and work together, creating tools, models and research methodologies.

The project is based in an online platform with an audiovisual database and a knowledge repository: http://www.gridspinoza.net

Gameplay

Gameplay was a research project that explored new methods for fostering business innovation through the application of game design concepts. It was developed within Telefónica R + D, in the framework of Disonancias.

We worked on cultural change from a value system based on competitiveness, productivity and short-term achievements to one based on cooperation and bold exploration.
