I'm a creative technologist mostly interested ein the interaction of people with technology and the revelatory effects of technology on humans on an individual as well as a societal level.

I came up through the German hacker scene, when I got involved as one of the main organisers of Make Munich, Germany's first maker festival, and co-founded the Munich Maker Lab in 2013. I continued my path hosting workshops and temporary hackerspaces at events like Hedo-Congress, MLOVE, DMY, etc.

During the D#AVANTGARDE GenAI Lab at the art&tech Hackathon Schmiede24: Faust, I started an exploration of cultural representation in the latent space of generative AI models that lead to the ongoing Hegemony Eroding art project.
