About
Born in 1971, in Lisbon, Portugal . Master in Sociology (FCSH-UNL, Lisbon) and Phd in Anthropology (Visual Anthropology - Universidade Aberta, Portugal).
Research Fellow at the Visual Anthropology Lab of Centro de Estudos das Migrações e Relações Interculturais (CEMRI-UAb) and also a part-time freelance illustrator (http://ricardocampos.carbonmade.com).
In the past ten years I have been researching the applications of digital media and technology in ethnographic research, regarding its use in the fieldwork but also its potential for the construction of ethnographic representations (hypertext and hypermedia). I also did research on youth cultures (hip-hop, squatters, graffiti writers) and, more recently, on the Graffiti (sub)Culture in Lisbon. I have several papers and book chapters published, mainly in portuguese, about these issues.
