recent moves:

I am currently further working on the notions of simulation and presence in the context of game studies and continental philosophy for my PhD thesis and other publication(s).

I have been analysing qualitative research methods applied to online environments and working on theory readings in Continental Philosophy.

I spend my spare time with Sid Meier’s Civilization (forever!), Jorge Luis Borges, Thomas Bernhard, Fernando Pessoa and other games.
