Sophie Reyer, born 1984 in Vienna, lives together with her turtle in Baden. In 2010 she earned her "Master of Arts" in Composition/ Musical Theater as well as her diploma in "Scenic Writing" at uniT, after which she studied screenwriting in Cologne and earned a Doctor of Philosophy in Language Arts in Vienna. Today, her work revolves around philosophical themes: What can be artistically opposed to a society like today's, in which biopolitics is practiced, i.e. life processes are directed and bodily functions optimized? And what role does God play in this?
