Meta‐Virtuality: Strategies of Disembeddedness in Virtual Interiorities

Journal of Interior Design, EarlyView., 2022
ABSTRACT To reclaim their seat in the rapidly growing market of virtual space, designers of the built environment can benefit from reevaluating theories that see the virtual as a mere extension/reflection of the physical. By claiming ontological autonomy from external worlds, the virtual is liberated from the hegemonic control of the physical.

Mit dem Kreidestift und Farben: Revolutionizing Grünewald in the German Democratic Republic

Art History, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 310-343, April 2023., 2023
In 1952, the director of East Berlin's Märkisches Museum discovered three drawings by Matthias Grünewald pasted into a Luther Bible. This remarkable find set off a fascinating tale of art‐historical espionage, but also served as a generative moment for the construction of the well‐worn cliché of Grünewald as a revolutionary and peasant sympathizer.
