My research interests circle around complexity. It comprises modelling and simulation of nonlinear systems as well as philosophical and epistemological problems that arise in complex systems research.
Artistic approaches play a prominent role in my considerations. The dialogue between arts and sciences I call performative science. It is an attempt to combine phenomenology with science. Because of the outstanding role of performative science in my research I devoted a separate site to this topic. A second dialogue that is constituent for my research acticity is defined through the interface between hermeneutics and systems sciences. I refer to this negotiation principle using the notion of "operational hermeneutics."
Since January 2006, I am head of the project "Basic Research into Performative Science" at the Institute for New Media, Frankfurt/Main, Germany. Also, I am the category manager of the Art & Science category in the MARCEL project: A permanent broadband interactive network and web site dedicated to artistic, educational and cultural experimentation, exchange between art and science and collaboration between art and industry.
