I am an academic ✒ on 🚯🚆🐮💾. #sts #sociology #ecology #waste #energy

Interested in material matters: expressive materials, political experiments, and precarious social relations.

I use qualitative ethnographic methods but also turn to digital methods and coding to enrich the analysis. Currently following the value chain of data centres. Work in #Bochum, GER, living #Hanoi, #Vietnam, #ASEAN.

I'm also into sports, #running #cycling, learning #piano, and collective things of all sorts. #tfr

    Half a year ago, we wrote a piece about the environmental footprint of Mastodon hosting. The same questions can be raised with Lemmy and #kbin in mind.
