Trained as an economist and social anthropologist, Corsin Jimenez explores the place of space in anthropological forms of knowledge and anthropological theory itself as a spatial form. His current work examines the rise of an urban commons movement and the development of open-source urban hardware projects by architects, artists and engineers; addressing also the affordances that such 'prototyping cultures' may have for anthropological theory at large, updating the conceptual arsenals with which to tackle the complexity of the socio-spatial entanglement from anthropology.
