Since April 2025, Jonas Tinius is responsible for the Berlin-Brandenburgische Landesstelle für Alltagskultur (formerly Volkskunde), which was directed since 1995 by Leonore Scholze-Irrlitz. It gathers the archives and collections of the Institute for European Ethnology and acts as a documentation and research laboratory. Going forward, it will create collaborative possibilities with artists, curators, journalists, scholars, and students to work towards public anthropological engagement with (extra-)curricular knowledge production, archives, and university collections. For more information and until the digital presence of the Office for Everyday Culture has been revamped, please consult the Collections Website of the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (link) or consider the module "Volk" with Franka Schneider in our edited book Awkward Archives (link).
