Hi, I’m Adrian (Demleitner). My subjects of interest cover permacomputing and poetic technologies, queer politics, critical code studies, archival practices, and game studies. I studied process design at Hyperwerk (Basel, CH) and obtained an MA in design research at HKB (Bern, CH). Having been a senior frontend web developer for most of my working life, my last few positions included working as a scientific software programmer in a research project on participatory image archives at the University of Basel, enjoying a junior researcher role at the Institute of Experimental Design and Media Cultures in a project on electronic waste, and recently taking on a new role as head of study programmes in the Digital Humanities at the University of Bern. Between 2023 and 2026, I worked on my dissertation in the fields of critical code studies, digital humanities, and video game studies within the research project Confoederatio Ludens.
Most of my academic work is linked through my ORCID profile, and you can find my writing online on my digital fallow and the fediverse. I’m collecting fervously on are.na.
