  • Tadaaa! my portfolio

    Sometimes life gives one the chance to collate all the work done. That’s what I did to apply for an artist residency. A selection of works that I did between 2010 and 2023. That was fun! #socialsculpture #lifedesign #communityarts #performance #residency #speculativedesign #designfiction #culturehacking #storytelling #mythology #creativity #co-design #criticalplay #constellationwork #innerwork.

  • Rhythm for Future

    Illness gifted me a bit of time by myself recently, and it struck me that rhythm is really the heart of health. Yet our modern lifestyle has us ignore many natural rhythms. Take electrical lighting, which has put us out of touch with an ancient sleep rhythm, one that may have had two sleep phases…

  • Good Cards for a Good Climate

    Here’s a set of postcards to help get climate conscious in everyday life. Each card shows a prompt to become climate wise. Engage your colleagues, friends and extended family in a bit of banter around energy and water consumption, packaging and pollution and love for our planet and the abundant nature it gifts us. Just…

  • Climate Action Manual

    In a year-long living lab we experimented how to quickly and safely transform a hospital to be carbon neutral by 2030. This fieldbook holds our experiences, pitfalls, successes, contacts and hurdles. (German)

  • Conscious Cycle Kit – beta

    Some nights are just glorious. Like one morning in March 2020, when I woke with such clarity and insight that I sprinted to my notebook to jot down what had come into perception. I wrote almost all of it in 2h, and spent a few days refining. The purpose of the kit is to help you…

  • We Are In.Tuition Fieldbook out now

    It’s been a year since we held our retreat in Cowra, and from it sprung a fieldbook with wise and thoughtful stories of circle life, leadership and transformation. Our group of academic fringe dwellers crowdfunded layout and print and we’re eternally thankful to our many supporters. Talented Jenni Ottilie took on the graphic design of…

  • Founder at Heart @MBAe

    Founder at Heart is a result of a few years teaching Global Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the University of Technology Sydney’s MBAentrepreneurship. We realised that, coming from an anthropological perspective, some of the inner work we did with students resonated deeply. So, I was invited to design a course around purpose and collaboration. Summer 2018…

  • Manifesto For Tomorrow at the Art Gallery of NSW

    Manifesto For Tomorrow was an experimental youth engagement program that made participants the authors of their own declarations of beliefs, intentions and motifs. The program ran in the spring of 2017. I.C.E., the Art Gallery of New South Wales and an alliance of education partners developed and delivered a youth program of artistic research and…

  • We Are In.Tuition – Remixing the Goods

      A project I’ve been working on is called We Are In.Tuition. We Are In.Tuition is a creative residency, dojo, retreat, open value network and fieldbook. It’s the result of 15 months of dojos / gatherings jamming on a loosely defined field of shared practice: intuition and mutual care in leadership, innovation and the future of work. In…

  • What’s The Future of Education, Really?

    UTS Business School has released a short clip on the work we’ve been doing with our students. It’s been a tough semester, including a lot of strong emotions among my students as well as me. The comments they made on this clip validate so beautifully that learning is a liminal threshold, and being outside your comfort zone is…

  • Artist Residency – Working with Resistance

    As part of my Artist Residency at the University of Technology Sydney, I was invited to run a series of experimental gatherings, in which we offer a space to reflect and practice working with uncertainty. Our experiments are around behaviours, ethics, and tools that are helpful in times of change. My facilitation is informed by remixing…

  • On Love and Creativity

    AcademyXi asked me to speak at an openIDEO event in Sydney. I couldn’t attend, because I was at Wir Bauen Zukunft in Germany. So I recorded 13 mins about what I think are the causes of a disconnected society,about competition and winning, my experience of living in Leipzig (post-socialist) as very communal and collectively artistic,…
