Job title: 
ARC Fellow and Interdisciplinary Designer
Bio/CV: 

Ioanna Sotiriou studies the impact of global information systems on architectural thinking and production. Her work spans from strictly technical to purely absurd and speculative, including projects related to provoking errors in LiDAR scans, a digital cemetery for cold data, and an advanced interferometer for detecting gravitational waves in space. Her projects have been exhibited, published, and awarded in the US, Europe, and Australia. She holds an M.Arch. from UC Berkeley, a Certificate in New Media from BCNM, and a Diploma in Architectural Engineering from the University of Thessaly. In 2019, she played a pivotal role in the creation of Butlr, a tech startup in the Bay Area, working on the development of spatial AI technologies, where she currently serves as the Head of Marketing & Design.

Ioanna was an ARC Fellow in Spring 2019 - she was chosen in the Graduate Fellow category.
