Ámbar Tenorio Fornés

Ámbar Tenorio-Fornés (they/she/he) is a researcher, free software developer, and live-coding performer. Their PhD studied decentralized governance tools for Commons-Based Peer Production communities. They are the founder and director of Decentralized Academy Ltd, where they lead the development of the blockchain-based software Decentralized Science (funded by LEDGER European Project) and Quartz Open Access (funded by Grant for The Web program). Their previous experience includes participation in the European research projects DAFNE+, P2P Models and P2Pvalue and the development of decentralized web tools including Teem , SwellRT, Decentralized.science, and Quartz Open Access using technologies such as Blockchain and IPFS.

As a live-coder, they play as TACHA~, creating noises, visuals, and poetry, and sharing live-coding as a simple and fun way to play music to support diversity in the scene. They dance in Performing Gender: Dancing in Your Shoes, and have performed in international festivals and venues such as IN-SONORA, Norrlandsoperan, and Certamen Coreográfico de Madrid among others.
