Caterina is a Chancellor’s Fellow in Design Informatics in the School of Design, University of Edinburgh, working at the intersection between the philosophy of art, history and philosophy of human and artificial creativity, and the philosophy of AI. Her insights on art practices and the art sector come from her background as a classically trained pianist, while she deepened her expertise in philosophy of art during her Ph.D. (2018) and the research of the latest years. She applies her specialistic knowledge in the philosophy of art and technology publishing extensively in the fields of philosophy of art, creativity, and philosophy of AI. She also collaborates with artists, international academic institutions and technology companies in projects aimed at investigating the impact of Artificial Intelligence technologies in the creative sector.
Caterina is a Research affiliate at the Edinburgh Futures Institute and Centre for Technomoral Futures, University of Edinburgh. She is also Lead of the Edinburgh College of Art in the Centre for Data, Culture & Society.
Research interests:
- Human-AI Co-Creativity: How can humans be more creative through the use of state-of-the-art AI technology?
- Human and Artificial Agents: How can human agents successfully interact with Artificial Intelligence systems? How do we manage to trade off between sense of agency, control, and reliance on the system?
- The Role of Embodiment: What impact does embodiment have on the creation and reception of artefacts? Is embodiment an ingredient that an agent needs to possess in order to be creative?
