Biography
For many years, my research interests have evolved around the interplay between 'micro activities' and 'macro structures' in physical and digital mediation spaces (WWW, urban spaces, libraries, museums, social media, etc.). In that context, focus has been on investigating affordances in such spaces for enabling and supporting creative user practices in everyday life, especially, in the shape of user participation, exploratory information behaviour, social navigation, and serendipity (unplanned but interesting findings).
