Vita
Felix Remter studied social and cultural anthropology, social sciences and intercultural communication in 2009 - 2015 at LMU Munich (Magister Artium). Currently he is working at the Munich Centre for Technology in Society (MCTS) co-implementing the project 100Places:M as part of the centre for urban ecology and climate adaptation (ZSK) at TU Munich. Into this work he brings further experiences from studying landscape architecture in 2003 - 2006 at TU Munich and Leibnitz Universität Hannover and from fieldwork in human bee relations in Germany, Switzerland, Wales and Bashkortostan.
