Author Information

Mikesch Muecke grew up playing in the forests and fields that surround the hamlet of Spork-Eichholz (now Detmold) in the princedom of Lippe in northwestern Germany before realizing that he wouldn't be happy to stay put. Not knowing what to do after graduating from the nearby Gymnasium in Lemgo, he took off with a friend to settle in Canada, and quickly found out that there was a gap between projection and reality. He continued to work and travel for a year through Mexico and the United States, met his wife at the University of Chicago, returned to Germany for five years, and then settled in the United States for good in 1985. After studying architecture at the University of Florida and Princeton University, he started teaching at Iowa State University where he has been living, designing, and writing since 1995. In 2005 he started his own publishing house, Culicidae Press, LLC (peer-reviewed), followed by Hog Press (independent and non-profit), Obvious Press (private label books for polytekton), and has since then designed and published books, websites, and other media vehicles for a wide variety of clients.
