If data is the greatest collective treasure of a digital society, basic material for business and politics: Why are the places where it is stored still so invisible? Niklas Maak, architectural critic and Professor for Architecture at Städelschule Frankfurt, explores this question in his new publication and envisions radical solutions for the future.
NIKLAS MAAK (*1972) studied art history, philosophy and architecture in Hamburg and Paris. His 1998 doctoral thesis was devoted to the design theory of Le Corbusier and Paul Valéry. He has been editor for art and architecture in the feature section of the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung since 2001.
