Anja Gebauer Negri (she/her)

The focus of my research to date has been in the areas of digitality, cultural education, and art and museum studies. I have continually expanded the focus of my dissertation through publications and projects with a view to relevant and future-oriented issues. These include conceptual communication strategies, post-digital art practices in digital-analog urban space, the topic of artificial intelligence, and co-creation and design thinking. I also draw on my expertise in empirical social research, which ranges from participant observation and guided interviews to grounded theory.

It is important to me to combine historical lines of development with current inventories, to consult studies and data sources and to apply a critical and reflective perspective in order to ultimately contribute to a well-founded and creative design of the future. I also like to use alternative forms of knowledge, apparently fixed opinions, current debates, contradictory attitudes or satirical media phenomena as productive areas of friction in order to ultimately reflect on knowledge production and power principles from a scientific and research perspective. In my own research practice, I also use reflexive methods to understand my subjective involvement as an integrative component and to make the process of gaining knowledge transparent.
