About

I studied art history, history and cultural studies and worked from 2000 to 2019 as an academic staff member at the Art Historical Institute of the Goethe University Frankfurt. From 2007 to 2012 I played a lead role there in the project “Sandrart.net: A net-based research platform on the history of art and culture in the 17th century” (funded by the DFG, the German Research Foundation). Between 2011 and 2014 I was a researcher affiliated with the DFG-funded project “Music video aesthetics on portable devices” at the Institute of European Art History at University of Heidelberg and from September 2014 to May 2019 I have been working as Directeur de recherche (Department: Digital Humanities) at the German Center for Art History in Paris (DFK Paris). Since 2019 I’m the Head of “Digital Historical Research (DH Lab)” at the Leibniz-Institute of European History (Mainz, Germany).
