| I am originally from the southern and Italian part of Switzerland (Ticino) where I completed all the basic schools. I hold a master in Computer Science and Engineering from ETH Zurich, where I also completed my Ph.D. in Summer 2009. I joined the Distributed Cognition and Human Computer Interaction Lab at the University of California San Diego as Postdoc in October 2009. My work on Human Computer Interaction is situated at the intersection of computer science, cognitive science, communication, and social sciences. I am a computer scientist who develops tools, techniques and infrastructure supporting the deployment of innovative interactive multimodal and tangible devices, and an ethnographer creating novel methods for studying the cognitive consequences of the introduction of this technology in the everyday life. My main interests ranges from software engineering to human computer interaction, including computer supported cooperative work, mobile and ubiquitous computing. In my past research I explored new ways of enhancing a seemingly mundane, but ubiquitous, resource such as paper to support everyday work, interaction and collaboration. In particular, I investigated how to support and extend the authoring and publishing infrastructure for interactive paper documents, providing distinctive ways of interweaving paper documents with digital materials. In my current work I am developing theory and methods, designing representations, implementing prototypes, and evaluating the effectiveness of interactive physical-digital systems in order to understand the broader design space in which they are situated. |
