Infinity begins.

How time flies… Today, 5 years ago everything began. Today 5 years ago I wrote the first script for a graphic novel called ‘The Hole’.  The story about a gigantic hole in the middle of a nameless city - a city governed by company empires.  And it was the story of a female superhero, who - what surprise - looks like my girlfriend.  Today, 18 tons of paper, 400 hectolitres of coffee, 2 million cigarettes, 50 gallons of blood, sweat and tears later the 8 page script became a whole universe. A story of a thousand stories.  A multimedia experiment made of short stories, videos, movie clips, audio files, a graphic novel, a radio play, short movies and heaven knows what else we’ll think of.  But for now a circle is completed, because today - 5 years after the first draft the THE-MINUS.com is being launched.   It’s the big bang of a universe that is ever expanding. It’s the beginning of an endless voyage of discoveries for us and hopefully for you too.   Enjoy Infinity

Ps: thank you! günther hauser and klaudia medano - who are tirelessly trying to achieve the impossible with me. kathrin resetarits and robert sammelin - for their fantastic work and input. susanne thomanek - without whom the project wouldn’t exist in this form. departure (wirtschaftsagentur wien)- for their financial support. paul pluesh & michi ‘mitch’ dörfler - and many others - for their input. family and friends - who rarely got to see me. And already praise for gerald kerkletz and gilbert kralinger with whom i am working on stories and a Minus short movie which will be filmed during the summer. Because, don’t forget: This is not the end. This is just the beginning!
