 Hello, my name is Andreu Numbano. I am originally from Bogota, Colombia. I go to school at UT Austin and I'm doing a PhD in Media Studies. I am interested in learning and play and using games for education. Especially I am interested in using mobile devices in physical spaces for learning about communities and local places. My name is Joyce Nijs. I'm from Amsterdam, the Netherlands. And I'm a PhD student at the University of Rotterdam. My PhD research is on new media and civic engagement. And that fits really well with the Youth in Media Lab here. As I am working to develop a curriculum where youth are stimulated to create content and in doing so perhaps get more engaged. Hi, my name is Therik Hong and I go to Brown. I'm very interested in digital art and especially how young people's content creation and self-expression ties into the formation of their identity. One project I did recently reflected on my past blogging. It was a performance called Distraction in which I typed into a blog in front of a live audience and my words were fed into Google and fed back to me. Hi, I'm Kasser Holmeinfair. I'm a rising junior here at Grimsley High School in Greensboro, North Carolina. I'm currently working on the Youth Ambassador Program for the Youth in Media project here. I'm trying to create a program that we can get more collaboration between the youth and the center. I am an information hustler, a tribe builder, and I'm striving to become the next Godfather. I finished about two years ago undergraduate at Fire Road, where I did history of science. Since then I've been working here at the Working Center as a research assistant on youth and information quality online. Looking at issues of credibility, information seeking, content creation, and how that affects the overall experience of being in the information ecosystem online. Next year I'll be going for a master's at the Oxford Internet Institute, maybe continuing some of the same research, maybe going more quantitative topics. My name is Hannah DeResowitz. I am originally from Boston, Massachusetts, but now I live in New York where I am a rising junior at Columbia University studying political science and sociology. My long-term interests lie in public health and global health policy and international healthcare and human rights, but I'm also really interested in issues of freedom of speech and how that interacts with digital technologies, how technology is used to enhance or to change social relationships. Hi, my name is Nathan O'Levy. I went to Brown University. I graduated in December 2010. And here in the lab I'm most excited about the ongoing conversations that we have amongst ourselves and in our work between sort of what we're doing on the ground level building relationships with community organizations implementing educational material and the ongoing policy work or policy conversations we hope to contribute to. My name is Alex O'Dallan. I'm a rising senior at the University of Michigan, in Ann Arbor. I'm interested in storytelling and the mediums through which we tell stories and also looking at constructing tools and platforms for others to build their own narratives. My name is Ben Deerhart. I'm from Switzerland. I'm excited about computers especially. In this field of human-computer interaction, designing user interfaces improved them and shortened them longer.
