Job description

The scope of the research is to develop a toolbox that helps visualizing how people use, perceive and conceive a given spatial environment, in other words: a toolbox to

visualize mental maps. The innovative aspect of this research is to rely -for the development of this toolbox- on recent advancements within locative and media technology, specifically on recent advancements within ubiquitous gaming. We argue that ubiquitous games can be employed to visualize mental maps. The scope of the research is to validate this argument, by developing a ubiquitous game for a given spatial context and within a given theme (so far defined as leisure).

Profile and diploma

Master degree (or equivalent) in architecture, urban planning, geography or in any other discipline relevant to the proposal. Thorough knowledge of the English language is required.
