Meet Researcher Adriana de Souza e Silva

Associate Professor of Communication Adriana de Souza e Silva is the subject of a video created by students in COM 437 – Advanced Digital Video, in the Department of Communication. de Souza e Silva researches how people use location-based technologies–like cell phones that know where you are–and how the use of such technology affects our experiences of spaces, especially urban spaces. She is also exploring how low-income communities, particularly those in the developing world, appropriate technologies.

de Souza e Silva recently wrote a guest post for our newsblog about the new realities posed by our increasingly mobile technologies.
