Senior Lecturer at Interaction Design and Software Engineering

Lecturer in Interaction Design
PhD. Computer Science and Engineering, M. Arch.
Josef Wideström is a full time lecturer at Chalmers University of Technology, teaching in interaction design, architecture, and visualization. His research focuses on the relations between physical and virtual spaces. Josef is currently involved in the development of VisLabs, a visualization centre at Universeum in Göteborg. He has been involved in research projects at Chalmers and University of Gothenburg since 1999, contributing with an expertise in visualization and digital representation. He was the manager of Chalmers VR CUBE for five years, beeing involved in more than 20 different research projects. Josef Wideström is an architect by education, with a M.Arch from Chalmers in 1998. He has continued to work with his own architecture practice, using his projects both as empiric material for research as well as examples in teaching.
