Léa Perraudin
Léa Perraudin is an environmental media scholar based at the Cluster of Excellence »Matters of Activity«, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and the lead of the transdisciplinary experimental laboratory »CollActive Materials«, funded by the Berlin University Alliance (2022-2025). She holds a PhD in media studies from University of Cologne, after formal training in anthropology, philosophy and media culture, and has received fellowships from UC Berkeley and IKKM Weimar. Léa’s research in the realm of environmental humanities and queer feminist STS explores infrastructures and their environments through situated phenomena of transience, dispersal, abundance, and solidification. A particular concern of her work are nuanced forms of collaboration and care between critical research and everyday material practices, which she attends to via speculative methodologies, material poetics, and diffractive ways of writing.
Recent publications: Elementare Ekstasen. Sondierungen der Technosphäre (meson, OA, 2024) and Material Trajectories. Designing with Care?, co-edited with Clemens Winkler, Claudia Mareis und Matthias Held (meson, OA, 2023).
