I'm a filmmaker, media artist and currently finishing my Doctor of Arts on my Embodiment Theory of Immersion.

Co-founder of Querq ry and Virtual Cinema Lab research group.

Did my MA in trans-disciplinary media arts at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. I worked in cinema (directing, cinematography, screenwriting, acting, editing) for more than 15 years

I used to host events all over the world: Kinokabaret filmmaking festivals in Mexico and Palestine, the Random Film Festival in Poland and Sweden, exhibitions, residencies, …

These days I'm trying to stay in one place and focus on long-term projects and initiatives, such as creating inclusive spaces for people to come together and coach folks in decentralised leadership 🌼
