Q: how did you come upon this name?
A: I was always interested in technology, in all its forms, Music,
Graphics and for example, scientific films. Three years ago, a couple
friends and i began to become interested in a new kind of telescope with
which you could observe the whole world from a great distance. The
telescope was called Bochum and so i called my project Bochum Welt. The
meaning of the name should really be: to see the world with different
eyes as it really is, in an introspective manner.
Q: you were never in the city of Bochum?
A: No, i know nothing of a city by that name. But if you mean that the
city is a little hard to get to, then i must say that i like that. I love
desolate and miserable cities, because the people must always create, in
order to escape from reality. The most creative cities in Europe are
mostly in the north. Exactly for this reason.
