Martin Warnke - Speaker

Knowledge gained from computer simulations, which emerges from computer-based imitations of dynamic systems is an ecological, medical, economical, and technical method that has a strong effect on our daily life. Martin Warnke is professor for computer-based cultural studies and, before teaching at Leuphana University, worked as a physicist at Hamburg University. Turning from there to cultural studies, he brings the expertise and methodology of hard sciences to the field of cultural studies oriented information technology. He combines a disposition for exactness with a fascination with contradictions. He builds software system, which make visual and preverbal perception communicable via information technology. Together with Prof. Dr. Claus Pias, he heads the DFG-research-group “Media Cultures of Computer Simulation”. In addition, he is deputy director of the Institute for Culture and Aesthetics of Digital Media at Leuphana University where he also teaches inside the Faculty of Cultural Studies. He also coordinates and works in several research projects: “Relations in Space—Visualizing Topographical Small Structures”, “Hybrid Publishing”, and “Meta-Image II”. Digital media are one of his main research areas at Leuphana University.
