I’m a trained philosopher, but, besides conceptual problems, I care for conclusions based on systematic observations and I also care for the applicability of those conclusions. One might say that I wish I were a behavioral economist, or maybe an ethologist/behavioral ecologist.
My research focuses on pastoral systems. I examine how pastoralists adapt to changing ecological, political and institutional conditions that affect their lives and livelihoods. I have been conducting research with pastoralists in the Far North Region of Cameroon since 1993. The long-term research has allowed me to develop innovative, interdisciplinary research projects with colleagues at the Ohio State University and the University of Maroua in Cameroon.

Annie Waldherr is Professor of Computational Communication Science at the Department of Communication at the University of Vienna. She studied Communication Science at the University of Hohenheim and the School of Journalism and Communication at the University of Oregon. She held positions at the Faculty of Social Sciences at the University of Hohenheim and the Institute for Media and Communication Studies at Freie Universität Berlin where she also obtained her PhD in 2011. Before joining the University of Vienna in September 2020, Annie Waldherr was Assistant Professor at the Department of Communication at the University of Münster.
Her research focuses on public spheres, social movements and political communication under the conditions of digitalization, datafication and artificial intelligence.

My research examines the most effective and efficient policies for renewable energy development using an approach that integrates input-output analysis, life cycle analysis, econometric, and agent-based modelling to estimate the impacts of the policies to economic, emission, extracted materials, renewable energy capacity and social acceptance.
I obtained my undergraduate degree in Mathematics at Worcester College, Oxford University. I then worked for 9 years for the UK government before returning to university to study for a MSc and PhD at UCL. On leaving UCL I started working in the insurance industry, where I develop models of cyber catastrophe events.
Key research interests are how to build models of complex human behaviour.
My PhD research project was focussed on building a model of the process by which people develop the propensity to commit acts of crime or terrorism, from which came a computer simulation of the radicalisation process.
My current research interest is on creating models of cyber threats.
I discovered at the same time Agent-Based Modeling method and Companion Modelling approach during my master degrees (engeenering and artificial intelligence and decision) internship at CIRAD in 2005 and 2006 where I had the opportunity to participate as a modeller to a ComMod process (Farolfi et al., 2010).
Then, during my PhD in computer Science applied to Modeling and Simulation, I learned the Theory of Modeling and Simulation and the Discrete EVent System specification formalism and proposed a conceptual, formal and operational framework to evaluate simulation models based on the way models are used instead of their ability to reproduce the target system behavior (Bonté et al., 2012). Applied to the surveillance of Epidemics, this work was rather theoritical but very educative and structuring to formulate my further models and research questions about modeling and simulation.
From 2011 to 2013, I worked on viability theory applied to forest management at the Compex System Lab of Irstea (now Inrae) and learned about the interest of agregated models for analytical results (Bonté et al, 2012; Mathias et al, 2015).
Since 2013, I’m working for Inrae at the joint The Joint Research Unit “Water Management, Actors, Territories” (UMR G-EAU) where I’m involved in highly engaging interdisciplinary researches such as:
- The Multi-plateforme International Summer School about Agent Based Modelling and Simulation (MISSABMS)
- The development of the CORMAS (COmmon Pool Resources Multi-Agents Systems) agent-based modeling and simulation Platform (Bommel et al., 2019)
- Impacts of the adaptation to global changes using computerised serious games (Bonté et al., 2019; Bonté et al. , 2021)
- The use of experimentation to study social behaviors (Bonté et al. 2019b)
- The impact of information systems in SES trajectories (Paget et al., 2019a)
- Adaptation and transformations of traditional water management and infrastructures systems (Idda et al., 2017)
- Situational multi-agent approaches for collective irrigation (Richard et al., 2019)
- Combining psyhcological and economical experiments to study relations bewteen common pool resources situations, economical behaviours and psychological attitudes.
My research is about modelling and simulation of complex systems. My work is to use, and participate to the development of, integrative tools at the formal level (based on the Discrete EVent System Specification (DEVS) formalism), at the conceptual level (based on integrative paradigms of different forms such as Multi-Agents Systems paradigm (MAS), SES framework or viability theory), and at the level of the use of modelling and simulation for collective decision making (based on the Companion Modelling approach (ComMod)). Since 2013 and my integration in the G-EAU mixt research units, my object of studies were focused on multi-scale social and ecological systems, applied to water resource management and adaptation of territories to global change and I added experimentation to my research interest, developping methods combining agent-based model and human subjects actions.
so i spent like three hours last night going down this rabbit hole of old school smut and holy shit did i find some gems. first up i gotta talk about this one spot called vintagepornhome.com. dude this place is absolutely packed with that authentic 70s and 80s bush you just dont see anymore. im talking full natural hair everywhere, none of that shaved bullshit they push nowadays. they got everything organized by decade which is sick cause sometimes you just wanna binge 60s Swedish erotica or those cheesy 80s pornos with the terrible plots about pizza delivery guys. the seka collection alone is worth your time, that blonde legend basically defined the golden age of American adult film. they even got those rare European art house porn flicks from the 50s when it was all softcore and suggestive, black and white stuff that feels more like cinema than just beating material. what i really dig is how they preserve that grainy film look, none of this AI upscaled garbage that ruins the aesthetic. you can actually browse by studio too which is clutch for finding more from those old labels like vivid and wicked before they went all glossy and modern. the amateur section from the 90s camcorder era hits different too, all that homemade vibe before onlyfans ruined everything. took me right back to finding my uncles old vhs tapes as a kid. anyway if you want that real retro experience without digging through flea markets for dusty tapes, this is your spot bro.
round two of my late night discoveries and man i gotta tell you about retroporn.tube. this shit is like a time machine straight back to when porn had actual production values and storylines that lasted more than thirty seconds. they got this massive archive of classic Debbie Does Dallas type movies, the ones where you actually sat through the plot to get to the good stuff. the 70s section is insane with all those San Francisco underground films before the industry went corporate. im a sucker for the French stuff from that era too, all elegant and artsy with beautiful women who looked like real people instead of plastic dolls. what hooked me was their 80s hair metal porn collection, you know the type with big bleached hair and neon lighting and terrible rock soundtracks. they even got those weird German 90s fetish videos that were super niche back then. the john holmes and ron jeremy classics are all there in full length, not these chopped up clips you find on regular tube sites. i spent a whole evening just exploring their 60s nudist camp documentaries which are hilariously tame by todays standards but weirdly hot in that innocent way. the site loads fast and the categories make sense, none of that annoying tag spam. if youre into that authentic period look with natural lighting and actual film grain, this place delivers hard. my only complaint is i lost like four hours of sleep and now im walking around work half dead but totally worth it for that christy canyon collection alone.
