My name is Joan Domingo Riu. I am a Geographer and Urban Planner from Barcelona, learning from the Dutch experience in Amsterdam. Here in MediaLab, I will be working in the project Smart citizens and sustainability. I want to make cities better places to live, adapted to people’s needs, and environmental friendly.
I’m a Media Technology student at Leiden University and I also hold a bachelor’s degree in Marketing & Advertising.
I am interested in all types of new digital media and social behavior behind it.
Here at the Media Lab I am interested on how people and all those new technologies are going to mingle since in the future I believe advertising will be more about sales and entertainment than advertising itself.
I hold a Master in Media Studies, involved in the Post-Conflict Mind Check project at MediaLab. I am interested in how nations, cultures, and identities are represented/defined in our society. I love film, especially Woody Allen and Quentin Tarantino. I feel very much at home in the joyfully international environment of MediaLab.
