Franziska Strack is a political theorist with interests in political ecology, the environmental humanities, feminism and decolonialism, art and media, and time. Through her work, she generates concepts for the involvement of sensing human bodies and more-than-human environments in political events.
Currently, Franziska explores the role of sound in political practices. Specifically, she examines how linguistic, musical, and infra/ultrasonic sounds shape the experience, theoretical configuration, and normative evaluation of political communication and community-building. She also uses sound to address how changing acoustic fields, due to climate change, and agentic environmental forces call for new notions of collective action and living-together.
In addition to her academic work, Franziska has been involved in various outreach activities, most recently a panel discussion on music, sound and nature, and a radio interview on silence.
