Nicolas is a computer scientist who left academia to try and change the world for the better (or at least get the impression). He's working on the social and ecological aspects of digital capitalism from a critical perspective at the NGO "Konzeptwerk Neue Ökonomie" in Leipzig. He spent a large part of 2018 co-organising the conference "Bits & Bäume" in Berlin and is keen on discussing the politics of technology. He's also active in the climate justice movement and strives to connect people who see themselves as utopians and want to change the world.
