is a researcher and engineer whose work explores how computational systems shape life and reorganise living space. Her practice combines spatial analysis with the development of tools and methods to interrogate and intervene in digital infrastructures. She is currently a member of the investigative team at Forensic Architecture and a PhD candidate at the Centre for Research Architecture, Goldsmiths, University of London, where she also teaches on the MA programme. She has received awards and fellowships including the Open Verification PhD Fellowship at Forensic Architecture (2024-2026), Visual Arts Grant from Generalitat (2022), the Harvard Mellon Urban Initiative Fund (2021), second prize in the Barcelona Superblock Design Competition (2021), and a Latin America Verde Award (2018).

Júlia Nueno Guitart, Forensic Architecture
Mapping AI:
Tools and Spatial Techniques for Investigating Algorithms.
New Perspectives on Animals, Humans and Machines.
In this workshop, Júlia Nueno Guitart, PhD fellow at Forensic Architecture, introduces a set of investigative methods for analysing AI systems through spatial evidence, testimonies, and digital mappings. Drawing on case studies and digital tools, she will show how computational systems extend far beyond code—reshaping environments, reorganising territories, and intensifying violence through automated decision-making. This approach reveals the material and political impact of AI, particularly in transforming military strategy, and offers new ways to critically engage with its far-reaching consequences on the physical world.
