The Mobility of the Future

Day after day, they clog up city centres, bring traffic to a standstill and make people ill with their exhaust fumes. The demand for fewer cars on the roads is therefore becoming ever louder.
For three multimedia articles for Leibniz Magazine we spoke with economist Claudia Kemfert, physicist Günther Tränkle and sociologist Andreas Knie about the mobility of the future.

Commissioned by “leibniz“, the magazine of the Leibniz-Gemeinschaft (Leibniz Association).
Interviews by Stefanie Hardik.

My roles: cinematography, editing and production.
