(Germany, 1940)
Honoris Causa Professor and Honoris Causa Doctor, researcher of Chaos Theory and professor of theoretical biochemistry. He studied medicine at Eberhard-Karls-University, where he wrote his doctoral thesis on immunological tolerance. In 1967 he was a researcher in cybernetic biology at the Max-Planck Institute (Seewiesen) for behavioral psychology. A year later he was invited by Bob Rosen to work as professor in residence at the Center for Theoretical Biology in Buffalo, New York. In 1973 he returned to Tübingen, specialized in theoretical biochemistry, and obtained a professorship in this subject six years later. He was a visiting professor in mathematics at Guelph (1981), in Chaos Theory at Los Alamos (1983), in theoretical physics at Lyngby (1990), in process engineering at Charlottesville (1993), and in Applied Fine Arts in Vienna (1996). . His articles and works have been published internationally.
He participated in Medialab Madrid within the conferences organized for “Cibervisión02. Winter Cycle of Science and Technology of the Complutense University of Madrid” (February 27, March 4-8, March 11-15, 2002). In the context of the I International Festival of Art, Science and Technology – Cibervisión 02, a cycle of 18 conferences was held in which prominent personalities from the world of science, art and thought participated. The cycle addressed the topic of flows from the most diverse angles and contexts: those related to fluid physics; the dynamics of complex and self-organizing systems; global and economic ecosystem models; energy and information flows; neural flows and educational processes.
