Mario Guzman is a researcher-practitioner who blends a decade of hands-on humanoid-robot persona design with academic rigor as a PhD candidate in AI persona design and semiotics. He has scripted gestures and dialogue for Sophia the Robot and translated robot performances into media and institutional engagements for clients like the UN, Cisco, and Vogue. Equally at home in code and theory, his toolkit spans Python, C/C++, JavaScript, p5.js/ml5.js, Arduino and ESP32, and he volunteers as the Spanish i18n steward for p5.js. A seasoned lecturer and course-builder across institutions from Berlin to Buenos Aires, he frames creative technology through critical theory, embodiment, and cultural mediation. Co-founder of studios and labs, he combines experimental robot-building with publishable scholarship and public-facing art-tech projects, making his work directly applicable to responsible conversational AI and interaction design.
