Communication

Research
Whether analogue or digital – culture is constantly evolving. As a scientist, I search for new concepts and terms to grasp this change. For you I research and curate the state of the art. In seminars and workshops I pass on my expertise.
Development
Theory alone is sometimes not enough. As a project manager, publisher, curator and consultant, I support software projects, create books, develop exhibition concepts and generate ideas. For you, I provide support and guidance for the implementation into practice.
