My name is Jaron Rowan, I am the research director and coordinator of the PhD Unit at BAU, College of Arts and Design of Barcelona. I hold a BA in Fine Arts from the University of Barcelona (UB), an MA in Cultural Studies and a PhD in Cultural Studies from Goldsmiths University of London.
My research focuses on the material dimension of the culture, by analyzing institutions, public politics and production models that shape contemporary cultural production. I also work on design politics and ontologies, combining critical analysis with poetic proposals, observing the way semiotic-material plots perform and create objects and subjectivities.
I assist doctoral theses related to cultural politics and institutions, design ontologies and politics, digital cultures and rare epistemologies.
