Efraín Foglia’s personal website, subtitled “diseño indisciplinado” (“undisciplined design”). He is a PhD, digital interaction designer, researcher, and educator at the Open University of Catalonia (UOC), as well as one of the founding members of the community network guifi.net. The site is not just a personal portfolio, but also a digital outpost for his thinking on technological politics, digital culture, and the open-source ethos.
The site is mainly organized into several sections: biography, research, design, texts, teaching, and interviews. Its core content revolves around “Tecnopolítica” (technopolitics), showcasing his in-depth reflections on community network building, the protection of digital commons, and resistance to extractive platform capitalism. He also shares podcast projects he has led, such as Cacophony, which explores fake news and ethics, as well as cultural events he has participated in, including digital culture conversations at CCCB. The teaching section includes resources such as an educational toolkit he designed around the “Internet universe.”
This is a purely personal academic and project showcase website. All articles, podcasts, and resources are freely accessible, with no commercial pricing.
Pros: Intellectually rich content that deftly combines design studies, sociology, and political theory; sharp insight into platform exploitation and the dilemmas facing open source in the digital age; a broad project scope, ranging from grassroots network infrastructure to podcast production.
Cons: The site UI is very bare-bones, and the author even jokingly describes its current state as “a disaster” (“DESASTRE”); most content is in Catalan and Spanish, with little English translation, making it unfriendly to non-local readers; updates are fairly irregular, and the archive lacks systematic organization.
Best suited for scholars, students, and activists interested in digital anthropology, technopolitics, community-run autonomous networks such as mesh networks, open-source culture, and critical design. Designers looking for interaction design inspiration can also find a perspective here that differs from commercial design thinking.
The site is directly accessible from China and loads at a normal speed. However, due to the language barrier (Catalan/Spanish), domestic users will need to rely on browser translation extensions to read it effectively. Some podcast content may also be affected by the regional availability of platforms such as Spotify.
