Visual Media
Visual Media for the DSI Project 
As part of the Digitally-enabled Social Innovation in the City (DSICity) Project, our team has developed a series of visual media to enhance public engagement and showcase our work. This includes photo reports, interview-based documentation, and multimedia storytelling that capture the challenges and opportunities of social innovation in urban spaces. 
Video reportage called "Around Alone. Documenting Ocean relationships”
which reports the experience of the sailor Matteo Miceli and its commitment for sustainable technologies experimentation for social wellbeing.
Walking Data with Siena Students
What does data feel like in the streets of Siena? Join us for a sneak peek into our recent Data Walk, where students from the University of Siena explored how digital technologies shape urban life. From QR codes and smart sensors to invisible infrastructures, this walk reimagined the city through a critical lens.
Guided by curiosity.
Observing the digital in the everyday.
Thinking data, walking Siena.
