One is called Aprehender la Ciudad (Learning the city) and another one is called Ciudad Escuela (The City as School). Ciudad Escuela (The City as School) A…

Most of the projects promote a positive hybridization between physical and digital layer which is one of my principal interests. Actually one of my “obsessions” is developing the definitive connection between physical identity,…
