Our work is made out of curiosity and discovery, used to levity and fun. An unpredictable and uninterrupted process that, in our case, has lasted for over 40 years. 40 years of encounters, bandying between art and books, in search of new languages, contaminations, free experimentation.

Die zunächst europäisch entwickelte wissenschaftlich-technische Zivilisation dehnt sich zu einer erdumfassenden Einheitskultur aus. Dabei löst sie sich von der europäischen Herkunftsgeschichte ab und überlagert oder zerstört diese wie alle übrigen historischen Kulturen. So ist die Menschheit in einen großen Prozeß verwickelt, den sie vorwärts treibt und der sie mitreißt. Die bedrohlichen Aspekte des Prozesses lassen nach Auswegen und Alternativen suchen. Maurer knüpft hermeneutisch an Theorien der geschichtlichen Entwicklung und der Auswegsuche an und kommt zu der These, daß die landläufigen Vorstellungen von ökonomisch-politischer Revolution, die Marx am konsequentesten gefaßt hat, den Prozeß nur beschleunigen, indem sie den in ihm wirkenden Zielvorstellungen verhaftet bleiben.

Where do we go when Nowhere is the only destination left? Kerrybrook is Jana‘s favourite virtual escape. An idyllic fishing village with beautiful nature and, every now and then, a breeze of fresh air from the nearby sea. Jana, is this world‘s designer and person in power, she’s satisfied with her masterpiece. Best job so far. Until one day, a dead body is found, in both, ’Virtual Reality‘ and the real world. In times of climate change, VR is the only safe place for humankind. That‘s why Jana needs to solve the crime, she’s responsible for stopping the destruction. • CliFi Thriller (Climate Fiction): Climate change & virtual reality • For fans of Black Mirror (Netflix) • All age readers • Strong, female protagonist • Highly relevant topic WHITE RAVENS recommendation (2021): "In the not too distant future, the world is an inhospitable place: droughts, storms, floods. That’s why world designers construct »alternative realities«, such as landscapes populated by dinosaurs, life at court in the Middle Ages, and surfing and chilling out on a beach. People can switch between these worlds at will and, when they die there, they are not truly dead; instead, they merely return to the »real world« – same as at night when they sleep. Then they are reunited with their body, which is lying inside a capsule. In »Cryptos«, Ursula Poznanski pulls out all the stops of storytelling: She embeds numerous references to human and intellectual history in an action-packed and extremely suspenseful thriller plot. In the process, she raises central existential and ontological questions that result from the interplay between the real and the virtual worlds. This complex dystopian novel is narrated in such an enjoyable way that readers will hardly notice their brains going into overdrive as they devour it."
