Sebastian Lang

is an interdisciplinary researcher working in collaboration with artists, scientists and philosophers. His academic focus lies in the relations between contemporary societies and the digital. It is his goal to further explore how digital technologies shape our everyday lives, and the question how individuals and groups can use collective action to deal with the demands of a postdigital, production-oriented world.

His interest on how nature and biodiversity can be protected from degradation & destruction informed his work as a Research fellow for the Club of Rome (2024) and the association Wachstum im Wandel (2026). His cross-disciplinary approach on social, legal, technical and practical aspects of environmental conservation & renaturation is currently funded by the Stefan M. Gergely Scholarship (ÖAW Vienna).

Graduated with distinction in "Cross-Disciplinary Strategies" (2023) at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. The study program aims to counteract an increasing fragmentation of knowledge. In yearly inter- and trans-disciplinary projects he researched Digital Democracy, Gentrification-Touristification, and Digital Self-Optimization Practices. Additionally, he studied at the Social Science Department at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim (2025). Currently, he is a Master student in "Theory and History of Science and Technology" at Technical University Berlin, where he focuses on Philosophy and Ethics of Technology (2026).
