I remember the first book I read, Excession, and was impressed by the scope and the multiversity of the Culture-Universe.
May he rest in peace.

Losses and other things
Had a pause in posting some news, 'cause there was a death in the family. Pain, grief and loss - its something that we have to accept. Sometimes its hard.
Since my last post, there were so many things that happened - a pop star icon and a kung fu legend died - a french airbus disappered - a revolt against the mullahs in iran started and we saw the birth of a new icon for the iranian people. For me, besides all the losses und changes everywhere, there were also some very beautiful moments. Moments of love, happiness and being always in the knowledge of the strength and support that you get from your friends.
Now, I'm looking forward to a trip to London, I wasn't there since 2002. I'm really excited about this.
Meanwhile....
because of the 40th anniversary of the moon landing, there are so many interesting articles, tv documentations and pictures around - it's overwhelming. I hope that we will see another man on the moon in my lifetime, or on Mars. In my opinion, our future lies in space. No nation, not countries, only mankind.
Take a look at the photostream of OBNX.MUTE at Flickr - the pics are awesome!

Going online !
Dies ist mein allererster Versuch, zu bloggen. Weshalb, nun das ist einfach - ich habe im Netz schon so viele Sachen gefunden, bin über interessante Fotos gestolpert, habe geniale Berichte gelesen, und möchte nun meinen Teil zum World Wide Web beitragen.
In diesem Blog berichte ich über Comics, Film und Science-Fiction, und alles, was damit zusammenhängt. Doch auch Astronomie und Geschichte soll ein Thema sein.
Also - wir sehen uns!

This is my first try to blog. Why? Well, its easy - I found so many things in the net, stumbled upon interesting photographs, read interesting articles, and want now share my thoughts and be a part of the worldwide web.
In this Blog, I will talk about comics, movies and science-fiction, and everything in-between. But also astronomy and history shall be a part of my blogging.
Now then, I'll be seeing you!
