- Gerard Ryan is Professor of Marketing at Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Tarragona, Catalonia). His work bridges consumer research and artistic research, developing listening-based and practice-led methods to study infrastructures of consumption, waiting, and silence. He has developed electromagnetic listening as an artistic research procedure for engaging with non-verbal, infrastructural worlds that organise consumer environments.
- Mireia Valverde is Professor of Human Resource Management at Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Spain) and was a contemporary dancer. Her work connects organisational life with embodied practice, with a particular interest in movement within organisations and how bodies navigate organisational spaces, routines, and constraints. She brings choreographic and practice-led sensibilities to research, using movement as a way of thinking and as a method of inquiry.
