On Monday I finally defended my PhD thesis – Mobility is the Message: Experiments with Mobile Media Sharing. The opponent was David Ayman Shamma from Yahoo! Research. He did an amazing job presenting his interpretation of my work, and we engaged in a lively discussion about the thesis. It was followed by questions from the committee, and the audience.
Now I've just got back to Glasgow, where I am visiting Matthew Chalmer's group doing work in the Populations project at the University of Glasgow. I've been here since february and it's been a super exciting environment so far with great energy! I'm determined that great stuff will come out of what we are doing right now. But more on that another time...
