About
Joana Chicau is a researcher and practitioner at the intersection of performance, interaction design, and computational media. Her work centers on creative robotics, tangible and embodied interfaces, and the role of the body in digital and physical spaces. Through her research, she investigates how choreography, theatre, and human-computer interaction can converge to produce new forms of artistic expression and critical inquiry. Her most cited paper, "Creative Robotics Theatre: Designing Creative Interactions with Tangible and Embodied Interfaces" (2024, 6 citations), introduces a framework for using robotics as a collaborative, expressive medium in performance. This work demonstrates her commitment to pushing technological and artistic boundaries, while also highlighting the pedagogical and interdisciplinary potential of such practices. Chicau’s contributions are notable for bridging the gap between engineering and the performing arts, offering novel methods for storytelling and societal critique through interactive systems. Her research continues to inspire students and practitioners working at the crossroads of technology, embodiment, and creativity.
