The philosopher works at the intersection of speculative realism, history of science and technology, and the arts, and teaches at the School of Materialist Research. Moderation is by Katarina Kolozova, in a cooperation between Helle Panke e.V. and the School of Materialist Research. The lecture is in English, questions may be asked in German and English, and no registration is needed.
