Juan Fortun is a transdisciplinary designer and researcher from Colombia based in Switzerland. His practice centers on digital commoning, integrating critical media theory and pluriversal design philosophies to explore technological interdependences and socio-technical justice.

His work materializes through design artifacts that serve as collective thinking tools, interactive installations, critical technology workshops, and experimental publishing practices. He employs Do-It-Together (DIT) and Do-It-With-Others (DIWO) methodologies to develop action-based collective research.

Juan Fortun holds a Ph.D. from École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne and HEAD Geneva, Switzerland, with a thesis titled Designing for Decentralization: Ways of Connecting.
