- 2009

studies biology diploma ( University of Bayreuth / University of Vienna / Humboldt University Berlin, with specialisation in medical microbiology, parasitology & genetics ) 

​

parallel:  learning languages, visiting exhibitions, travelling i.e.                            positioning one's perceptive apparatus into different spatial                and temporal contexts ( which it will be later on ironically                      called )

​

plus:   developing ability to understand the artistic and pragmatic 

           conceptions of classic and avant garde ( this topic will come                into importance a later )
