Experience
Research, leadership and technology transfer
Applied AI research
After joining Eurecat, my work evolved toward applied deep learning, multimodal and generative AI, neural rendering and human–computer interaction. I led the Image Group from 2022 to 2025.
Innovation and leadership
I have contributed to European and Spanish R&D projects, participated in the network of excellence AI4ES, led several CIDAI Impact Projects, and evaluated tech-driven ventures for The Collider.
Perspective
Technology in dialogue with image and sound
An MSc in Sonology at UPF–ESMUC (2012) shaped a long-standing interest in the intersection of image, sound and interactive technologies. This perspective continues to inform both my research and creative computing practice. Explore the blog, creative projects or code.
