Dear Sir or Madam,

When the human raises from the black source and tries to understand the world walking tall, rises and falls using the crutches of his time, we recognize the ambitious will "homo sapiens" on its continuous, now stagnating, now rekindling way of evolution.

We would like to invite you to a an attempt to describe humanity - an explosive, experimental characterization of personal structures that exclude and complement each other and that (like in Babel) with their own intention and individual tools, may they be artistic or scientific, try to organize perception in order to grasp the sense, to gain awareness and to aim to progress.

In an artistic self-experiment the worries and ambitions of the characters will be staged in a complex performance at the Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften, faculty of architecture (HAW) on June 25th 2005 after sunset.

Under the direction of L.E.O. Eckhardt, architect and professor for design and experimental design, and Arne Lösekann, student, tutor at the HAW and artist, the students have created an ecstatic play in a workshop that tries to explain by means of communication between humans, virtual projections, language and music, how the hamster in his wheel runs against sense.

If he arrives or if he is caught in the dilemma of high flight should only be suggested, hoping or doubting.

In the darkness the play "vertex" will take possession of the room and the audience.

Rational room structures will be transformed to a vertical ecstasy.

The members of the Milky Way will apparently move to a point in the sphere....
