I am a research assistant at the University of the Bundeswehr Munich, pursuing a PhD in Intercultural Communication at Ludwig-Maximilians-University Munich. With a background in Theatre and Media Studies and Political Science from Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nuremberg, I am interested in the intersection of culture, nature, and technology. My current research involves an ethnographic study in an AI lab in São Paulo, Brazil, focusing on the socio-technological interactions among people, machines, and non-human actors like algorithms within extensive networks. Additionally, I explore the dynamics of the open source software community and try to engage in advancing post-qualitative research methods.
