Big ONE - Protokolle der St rung
Two books. One life. The complete record.
Big ONE collects ONcE and Mein Amoklauf in a single volume. Chronological. Document-based. No concessions.
Mein Amoklauf begins in 2006 on a bicycle somewhere between the Hunsr ck and Istanbul. A diary, a shoulder chronology, a legal dispute with the health insurance, an encounter with the Central Council of Sinti and Roma. Raw. Untranslated. Exactly as it was.
ONcE picks up in 2008. Tim Kraef, electrician, begins manufacturing a book. 88 copies. Handcrafted, addressed to music managers, publishers, federal ministries and prisons. Rammstein releases an album. The YouTube algorithm delivers FiNCH. The Hamburg LKA opens the mail. The lawyer recommends the casino. The health insurance sends a cross in a box. The prison fears a revolt.
No comment necessary.
The complete work follows a single premise: the fear of surveillance is greater than its actual power. And that is interesting - not reassuring.
For those who know ONcE and Mein Amoklauf separately: this is the original. For everyone else: this is where it starts.
No novel. No theory. Just what happened.
