After studying art history and literature in Heidelberg and New York, among others, Nickel worked at Zeitgeist Magazine pace at ARTE in Strasbourg and the magazine Architectural Digest. His articles appear among others in the weekend editions of SZ and FAZ.

From January to October 2007, he was responsible for the SZ in the Saturday supplement SZ weekend for the style of reporting.

Originally assigned to the pop literature to Nickels works mainly deal with the fate of modern man in revolt. By Nickels stations, the debate moves with the weather in all its forms, as well as the exact formulation of text simulations, ie texts that only pretend to deal with itself ( see also the longer narrative "sham Directions "). In his more recent works (including the poetry cycle " Barschels silent aria" - wrote a hexameter epic ballad about the death of the CDU politician and the first novel, " The Wasp " ), the author proposes a quite serious undertone to that in the claiming a moral to rebellious poetry.
