He is also a photographer and educator, judges photography competitions and curates exhibitions. He was born in Germany and now lives in the United States.〔"(Dr. Jörg M. Colberg )", Hartford Art School. Accessed 1 January 2015.〕 He is the founder and editor of ''Conscientious'', a blog dedicated to contemporary fine-art photography.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 accessdate = 1 January 2015 )〕 He worked as a research scientist in astronomy from 2002 until 2010. He is now a professor of photography of the International Limited-Residency MFA Program at Hartford Art School. ==Life and work== Colberg studied physics and astronomy at the University of Bonn; he earned a Ph.D. in physics (theoretical cosmology) at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics.〔 He moved to the United States in 2000.〔(Biography page ), FOAM. Accessed 6 January 2015.〕 After a short and unsatisfying experience in the computer programming industry, Colberg returned as a postdoc at the University of Pittsburgh.〔 Colberg dates the start of his interest in photography to 1999. His blog, ''Conscientious'', started on 9 July 2002. Early posts were short text messages (similar to what could later be accomplished via Twitter). The first substantive message was praise for the photography of Steve Pyke.〔(July 2002 archive ), ''Conscientious'', saved by the Wayback Machine on 13 May 2003.〕 The blog developed over time to show the photographs that Colberg was taking, but thereafter changed to say little or nothing about his own photography and instead to engage at greater length with that by others. Thus for example on 9 May 2006 he posted the first of numerous long conversations〔A list of links to conversations down to 3 April 2013 can be found (here ); newer conversations are on the current website.〕 with photographers, this first one being with Jay Parkinson.〔(May 2006 archive ), ''Conscientious'', as saved by the Wayback Machine on 12 June 2006. The conversation was later moved (here ). Accessed 6 January 2014.〕 ''Wired'' said in 2010 that "Joerg Colberg is a pioneer in photography blogging, and his blog Conscientious maintains a tight editorial voice." Since 2010 he has been a faculty member of the International Limited-Residency MFA Program at Hartford Art School, and visiting assistant professor since 2012. He has also worked as a visiting lecturer at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design and at the Rhode Island School of Design.〔"(About Jörg M. Colberg )", Jörg Colberg's website.
