RESEARCH

Since 2017 I have been associated to the University of Applied Arts in Vienna, where I concluded my PhD in artistic research in 2022. My PhD project focused on the concept of liveness in online to offline environments. My other research has focused on the facilitator role/facilitation of participation, documentation of socially engaged performance practices. I am also frequently invited as a guest researcher where I often support research design and contribute through my artistic practice facilitating expanded choreographic and ludic structures. 


Here are links to some of the research projects I have recently been involved in:
