This is the web site of the research lab on Cultural Complexity at The University of Western Ontario, Canada.
The lab is directed by Dr. Juan Luis Suárez, Ph.D., and formed by a multidisciplinary team of researchers and Ph.D. students with very diverse personal and intellectual backgrounds. To know more about our people, please, use the link in the left-hand side menu.
We are interested in understanding all kinds of processes related to the creation, transmission, and representation of culture, and how these processes shape the human experience. Our different academic perspectives —from philosophy to mathematics, computer science, economics, philology, and art history— provide us with a varied toolbox that we use to select, develop and tailor the most appropriate solution for the problem at hand. The Research Areas section of this site offers a more detailed list of research projects and interests.
We also build and adapt the computer tools needed to improve our analysis of the most complex cultural problems: agent-based modeling, topic maps, and virtual exhibitions are some of these tools. You can find more information about our Solutions in the main menu. If you have a problem related to the visualization of your assets, the management of information and knowledge in your organization, or the changes that the interaction between different groups or by the merge between different symbolic codes will likely cause, you can email us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
