About Me

CURRENT MISSION

finish my PhD..

ABOUT ME

I like to think and to dance.

While generally doing my PhD on social philosophy in Berlin, I am working for at the University of Duisburg-Essen.

I studied political science, philosophy and economics and I am currently working on a post-structuralist theory of freedom in my phd dissertation. Politics is important to me, especially queer critique.. I am doing some activism, regarding queer education and international democratization.

When it comes to partying, I like electronic music and mixed queer partys, more or less underground left-wing crowd.. Berghain is perfect, but there are a lot more cool places in Berlin.. :)

PHILOSOPHY

I studied philosophy - I don't have a philosophy.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list. I read a lot of social science and philosophy. I enjoy literature a lot, but unfortunately I end up not having a lot of time reading it, because I already read so much philosophical stuff..
Movies: mix of arty stuff and mainstream hollywood cinema.. I was Star Trek fan when I was younger :)
