Diana joined the team of Creative Computing and Creative Technology and Robotics as a lecturer in 2023. Since then, she has developed her research around the themes of experiential phenomenology and Human Robotics Interaction (HRI). She reinterprets current technologies to create interactive physical performance.

I graduated in Mathematics at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (2018) and hold an MFA in Advanced Theatre Practice from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama (2021). These studies provided me a blend of experiences that have shaped the work I’ve been involved in throughout my career.

I co-founded and co-direct the theatre company ANTS Theatre, since 2020, which originated as part of my MFA. With ANTS Theatre I devised and performed in the plays Qrumpet (2020 – 2022) and We Still Fax (2020 – 2021). I have also been a part of the devising team of the mathematical piece Axiom of Choice by Marcus du Sautoy (2022).

As part of my freelance work, I created software for the plays The Tight Squeeze (2022) and Terraforming Mars (2023) by Ludens Theatre, an immersive theatre company that uses technology to enhance audience interaction.
