Welcome..


..to that little accumulation of bits and bytes in the depths of the cyberspace I mean to call my personal homepage.

I am a graduate student at the Department for Social Studies of Science at the University of Vienna, Austria. Currently I'm working on my master thesis which investigates the resources that go into the construction of future scenarios set within the realm of nanotechnology.

Recently, I've translated Michael Buckland's "Emanuel Goldberg and His Knowledge Machine: Information, Invention, and Political Forces", the result of which has been published with Avinus under the title "Vom Mikrofilm zur Wissensmaschine: Emanuel Goldberg zwischen Medientechnik und Politik"; see Amazon product page.

On this homepage you may find information about present projects of mine as well as download some of the papers I wrote during the years of my university education. Also on this homepage you can find a fairly detailed biography of mine as well as a link to a blog that just started.

If you're searching material or information about me that is not provided on this webspace please do not hesitate to contact me.
