Pablo Somonte Ruano
(Mexico City, 1992). Multimedia worker, filemaker and cryptoexplorer.
I'm interested in topics in the intersection of technology, design and society:
generative systems, moving images, participation, free software, cryptography and p2p networks.
Right now I'm working in deriva.mx a transmedia
project approaching structural violence in Mexico through cinema and interaction.
I also teach a university course at CENTRO,
Networks and Systems: Politics and Economics. Download the study plan and
the class presentations (in spanish).
I also make music, for my personal project Párvulos
and sometimes for commissioned work.

Maps: Intersection is an exercise of speculative cartography in which
a pair of colonies from Mexico City are intersected to create a new one.
In this action, the areas occupied by buildings in each colony are intersected
to create a new urban layout.
To continue speculating on the characteristics of this eight new territories,
an average of the Human Development Indexes from the two colonies is calculated.
This is a measure taken in the census by the local government and calculated
at the Colony level.
