Research group for the ethnographic inquiry into ecologies, infrastructures, bodies and knowledges

Tim SeitzI am a doctoral student at Technical University Berlin.

My research interests lie in science and technology studies, the ethnography of epistemic practices, and the implications of this approach for sociological theory.

I work on a PhD project on the epistemic practices of behavioural governance. I am currently doing fieldwork in Copenhagen with a group of behavioral insights advisors. My primary focus is on their ways of turning policy challenges into behavioral problems and experimental setups. My secondary focus lies on exploring modes of co-laboration with knowledges that ethnography does not sit comfortably with.
