Hello, I’m Denise. I am an artist, researcher, and cultural manager focused on designing transformation concepts and future-resilient strategies. I collaborate with stakeholders from industry, culture, academia, and governmental initiatives.
​
In my work, I translate initial impulses into concrete future visions and actions. Together with my partners, I develop narratives and strategies for participatory applications with long-term societal impact. These emerge at the intersection of art, technology, science, and society and are designed for a diverse and broad audience.
​
From 2021 to 2025, I developed methods and tools for Future Thinking with the Ars Electronica Futurelab, equipping organizations with future skills and leading projects that resulted in unique prototypes relevant for the society of tomorrow. Since 2026, my work has shifted from a project-based to an ecosystem-centred approach as I am responsible for Cultural Management at Linz Tourism, shaping programs and narratives that position Linz as a UNESCO City of Media Arts. A key part of my work is strengthening networks between cultural initiatives, institutions, and stakeholders.
