IKKM, Bauhaus-Universität Weimar
Application deadline: Jul 15, 2011


The IKKM - Internationales Kolleg für Kulturtechnikforschung und
Medienphilosophie (Bauhaus-Universität Weimar) announces

three postdoctoral fellowships

for up to 15 months, starting in October 2011. Applications are welcome
from qualified candidates of all disciplinary backgrounds, particularly
from media, art and architectural history, from philosophy, and from
science and technology studies. Research proposals should relate to the
program's theme (see description below). Eligible candidates must hold
a doctorate at the time the position begins and show evidence of
scholarly promise in the form of publications and other achievements.

The Research Fellow Program is concerned with the history and theory of
design processes. It focuses especially on its tools and techniques.
The program is closely related to one of the central research emphases
of the IKKM: the question as to non-human agents' capacity to act. In
focusing on the history and theory of drafting, the Research Fellow
Program attempts to intensify the exteriority of forming and thinking,
both methodologically and thematically: First by dealing with the
concept of the tool, subjecting it to a critical revision from the
perspective of contemporary research on cultural techniques and
science; and secondly, by regarding the concept of drafting as a
practice that characterizes and grounds the modern artist, architect,
engineer and scientist. For a more detailed description of the topics
and aims of the Research Fellow Program see www.ikkm-weimar.de.

Scholars of all nationalities are welcome to apply. The IKKM is an
international and interdisciplinary research institute. The colloquium
language is English. It is expected that candidates are able to present
their own work and discuss that of others fluently in that language.
Fellows are expected to take part to the scholarly life of the
Institute, to advance their own research project, and to actively
contribute to the Research Fellow Program's activities. The scholarship
amounts are based on DFG funding guidelines. They will be financed by
funds from the ProExcellence program of the Free State of Thuringia.

Women are especially encouraged to apply. Candidates are requested to
submit a curriculum vitae (including a list of publications), a
research prospectus (maximum 800 words), a sample text representative
of the candidate's work (such as a chapter of the doctoral dissertation
or an article) no later than July 15, 2011
to:
Bauhaus-Universität Weimar
IKKM
Cranachstraße 47
99423 Weimar

Electronic submission is also possible and should be addressed to
Kristina Hellmann (kristina.hellmann at uni-weimar.de). For questions
concerning the Research Fellow Program, please contact Professor
Barbara Wittmann (barbara.wittmann at uni-weimar.de).
