Marco Quaggiotto

Marco Quaggiotto is a researcher and teacher in Communication Design at the Politecnico di Milano. His PhD and postdoctoral research concerns with the representation of knowledge and the complex dynamics of digital information. The aim of his research is to extend the cartographic metaphor beyond visual analogy, and to expose maps as a narrative model and tool to intervene in complex, heterogeneous, dynamic realities. He developed ATLAS, an interface prototype for the exploration of research resources, that allows users to manage bio-bibliographic resources in a shared environment and access them through different maps and representations.
