Philipp Hochmair spielt auf den unterschiedlichsten Klaviaturen. Und das (fast) im wörtlichen Sinne: Schließlich hat er sich mit seiner Band "Die Elektrohand Gottes" nicht nur mit "Jedermann Reloaded" einen Namen gemacht, sondern auch Goethe (mit "Werther") oder Schiller ("Schiller Balladen Rave") musikalisch-theatralisch in Szene gesetzt und so nicht zuletzt ein jüngeres Publikum für eine entstaubte Klassiker-Rezeption begeistert.

Eulen gehören mit ihren gut 200 Unterarten zu den faszinierendsten Spezies der gesamten Vogelwelt. Von allen anderen Vögeln als Raubtier gefürchtet, von den Menschen als Symbol der Weisheit verklärt und zugleich als Todesbote verdammt, verdient die "Königin der Nacht" eine genaue, Betrachtung. Desmond Morris verfolgt ihre Spuren abergläubischer Bedeutung in den verschiedenen Zeiten, Kulturen und Künsten und beleuchtet die realen Lebensgewohnheiten dieses Vogels, der immer noch als seltsamer Kauz missverstanden wird.

It seems as though everything currently is seeking to divide us. Whether it be the media, friends, family, or the world at large, everyone seems to want to point out just how different we are from one another.

This sixth installment in the series, as one would expect, deals with events in the northern settlements that were taking place at the same times as those in the southern. The opening passage explains: "The Pilgrims and Puritans, whose migration to the New World marks the beginning of permanent settlement in New England, were children of the same age as the enterprising and adventurous pioneers of England in Virginia, Bermuda, and the Caribbean. It was the age in which the foundations of the British Empire were being laid in the Western Continent." - Summary by Charles M. Andrews Group: ...

You already know what matters most. You just never seem to finish it. Not because you’re lazy. Not because you lack discipline. But because every day, the urgent cuts the line. By the time you answer the emails, sit through the meetings, and solve everyone else’s problems, the work that actually matters is still sitting there: unstarted or half-finished.

The difference is structure.

Rom hat überlebt, doch der Preis war hoch. Archimedes gibt sich nicht länger damit zufrieden, nur die Mauern der Stadt zu verteidigen. Er hat das Unmögliche gewagt und die Technologie der Invasoren entschlüsselt, gebändigt und gegen sie gewendet. Jetzt ist die Zeit gekommen, den Krieg dorthin zu tragen, wo er seinen Ursprung nahm. An Bord einer Konstruktion, die jede Vorstellungskraft der Antike sprengt, verlässt Archimedes die vertraute Welt.

Mit einer Feuerkraft, mit der es selbst Jupiter und Mars nicht aufnehmen können, legen sie die Foren und Tempel in Schutt und Asche. Archimedes, gezeichnet von den vergangenen Kämpfen, erkennt, dass Logik allein nicht mehr ausreicht.

Progress isn't about healing... it's about compliance. She wasn't raised. She was controlled. And at the bottom... is Level 0.
