About the Book

Im Rahmen einer Performance verkörpert Speed den Bürger einer optimierten Gesellschaft, in der sich die Menschen einander derart angeglichen haben, dass Kommunikation mangels abweichender Sichtweisen sinnlos geworden ist. In einem experimentellen Rausch will er darum gemeinsam mit dem Journalisten Mr. Bob einen von der Marktkonformität abweichenden Zustand erreichen, aus dem sich ihm unbewusstes Wissen erschließen soll. Er entwickelt dabei die "Theorie der Sphären", durch die begreifbar wird, weshalb Menschen in Zeiten großer Veränderungsnotwendigkeit angesichts der ökologischen, kulturellen, sozialen, wirtschaftlichen Krisen, in Schwäche und Passivität erstarren und dabei jede Irritation, alles Neue und Fremde meiden - somit jedoch Entwicklung blockieren. Speed zeigt einen zentralen Betriebsfehler des Kapitalismus auf, der die Lähmung der kreativen Kräfte einer Kultur bewirkt und darum am Ende immer zu einer schwachen Planwirtschaft großer Strukturen führt und freie Eigeninitiative sowie das soziale Gefüge zerstört. Dieser Prozess kann nur durch radikale Beziehungsarbeit, durch die authentisch gelebten Zusammenhänge und bewusst gemachten Auswirkungen des Handelns umgekehrt werden. Durch den natürlichen Ausgleich der Kräfte und Werte zwischen Menschen, der im kapitalistischen Markt durch den Zwang zum Produkthaften bewusst verhindert wird, um Gestaltungskraft, Lebensperspektiven und Werte zu kontrollieren. Speed antwortet darauf mit einer neuen Physik des verantwortungsvollen Individualismus, einem vom Bürgertum ausgehenden, neuen Gesellschaftsdesign, als Disziplin für jeden Menschen. Er vermittelt ein tiefes Verständnis von lebenden Ordnungsstrukturen, ja von der kreativen Lebendigkeit selbst. Ein wichtiges Werk, in diesen Zeiten scheinbarer Alternativlosigkeit.
About the Author: Der 1973 geborene britisch-österreichische Künstler, Philosoph und Schriftsteller Timothy Speed beschäftigt sich in seinen Essays, Performances, sozialen Projekten und literarischen Arbeiten mit der Rolle von selbstbestimmten, unangepassten und kreativen Menschen, in wirtschaftlichen und staatlichen Strukturen. Er setzt sich mit Veränderungs- und Entwicklungsprozessen auseinander, löst diese mit ungewöhnlichen Ansätzen selbst aus, oder begleitet sie. Gerade in Zeiten, in denen Individualismus von Angst verdrängt wird und ein übertriebenes Sicherheitsbedürfnis die kreativen Potenziale und notwendigen, krisenhaften Bewusstwerdungsprozesse verhindert, bekommt seine Arbeit hohe Relevanz und Bedeutung. Durch sie wird eine neue, noch verborgene Ordnung alternativer Lösungen, auf die Probleme unserer Zeit, sichtbar.
