        Der Golem
        March 2020

        Der Golem

        Eine Legende

        by Isaac Bashevis Singer, Gertrud Baruch

        »Majestät, es gibt Geheimnisse, die nicht einmal einem Kaiser enthüllt werden dürfen.« Der Literaturnobelpreisträger Isaac Bashevis Singer hat die Legende vom Golem neu erzählt: Ein Mitglied der jüdischen Gemeinde im alten Prag wird des Ritualmordes bezichtigt, die Richter sind auf Seiten der Denunzianten, ein Pogrom droht. Der weise Rabbi Löw, nicht nur ein Talmudgelehrter, sondern auch ein Freund von Magie und Mystik, hat bei der Mitternachtsfürbitte eine Vision: Er wird einen riesigen Golem aus Lehm formen, der die Juden aus der tödlichen Gefahr retten kann. Gewidmet ist die Meistererzählung »den Verfolgten und Unterdrückten in der Welt, in der Hoffnung wider alle Hoffnung, dass die Zeit der falschen Beschuldigungen eines Tages enden wird«.

        Der Golem in Bayreuth

        Der Golem in Bayreuth

        Ein Musiktheaterspiel

        by Ulla Berkéwicz, Lesch Schmidt

        Bürgerliches Recht und Ordnung treffen während der Bayreuther Festspiele auf den Straßenkrieg von Skins, die sich „Haßkappen“ nennen, und auf die neue Welt der Berechenbarkeiten durch Cyberspace und Wirklichkeits-Engineering. Die Welten geraten durcheinander, die Wirklichkeit kippt vor und zurück auf der Zeitachse. Der Anführer der Haßkappen wird zum Golem von Prag, der im 17. Jahrhundert durch magische Kraft von jenem Rabbi Löw erschaffen worden sein soll, in dem Scholem den Urheber der angewandten Mathematik sieht, die den Golem unserer Tage, den Computer, hervorgebracht hat. Beide, der alte wie der neue Golem, haben die Möglichkeit, der Kontrolle ihres Schöpfers zu entkommen und zerstörerische Fähigkeiten zu entfalten. Das Festspielhaus wird von den Haßkappen in Brand gesetzt. Götterdämmerung der alten Welt oder »World War Threeeeeeee«? Keine überlebenden und keine Toten. Nur zwei Menschen sind übrig, finden eine gemeinsame Sprache, die sonst keiner versteht und die zu nichts oder weiß Gott wohin führt. Der Golem in Bayreuth (Text :Ulla Berkéwicz, Musik: Lesch Schmidt) ist ein Musiktheaterspiel, das die Tradition des Schiffbauerdammtheaters mit neuen Mitteln weiterzuführen sucht. Crossing over, Pop into Classic.

        Vom großen Vordenker und Kritiker der Künstlichen Intelligenz

        by Stanisław Lem, Friedrich Griese, Franz Rottensteiner, Richard Popp, Irving T. Greve

        Die Hauptfigur in Stanisław Lems »Also sprach Golem« ist Golem XIV, ein von Menschen gebauter Spurencomputer, der unsere grundlegenden Denk- und Wahrnehmungsweisen in Zweifel zieht. Er weist auf die Grenzen unseres Verstandes hin, des Versuchs, die Ziele der Natur zu erkennen. Als eine Art Übermensch kennt er weder ein Gefühlsleben, noch besitzt er einen menschlichen Charakter. Seine Ethik ist gewiß keine humanitäre. »Er selbst nannte sie ›Kalkül‹. Liebe, Altruismus und Mitleid waren bei ihm durch Zahlen ersetzt.« Kurz vor seinem Eintritt in eine »Zone der Ruhe« hält er Vorlesungen über die Stellung des Menschen im Kosmos. Der Leser sieht sich mit der unbequemen Vorstellung konfrontiert, die Menschheit sei ein Fehlprodukt der Natur und keineswegs die Krone der Schöpfung.

Ursprünglich für militärische Zwecke gebaut, weigert er sich, sich mit solch trivialen Aufgaben zu befassen, darum wurde er schließlich dem MIT überlassen.

        TÜK

        by Art Antonian

        The üPopulation lost its human form a long time ago. In the world of people, heart palpitations are a crime, a terrible disease. Total prohibitions were declared absolute freedom, love of the motherland was replaced by aggressive political militarism, robots took the place of pets, they were created to train their masters in exquisite sadism. An ideal society is governed by the neÜsrooms. The only thing standing in the way of perfect order is Herz-terrorism, which arose as a result of a global cardiac pandemic. A law-abiding persön David works conscientiously for the benefit of the Ümpire at the TV center, helping to create a news product that should be regularly consumed by all representatives of the üPopulation. David, who is a cog in the merciless propaganda machine, falls into the maelstrom of events that not only question the perfection of the imperial system, but also threaten all of humanity.

        The Discovery of a Visual System - The Honeybee
        Science & Mathematics
        April 2019

        The Discovery of a Visual System - The Honeybee

        by Adrian Horridge

        This book is the only account of what honeybees actually see. Bees detect some visual features such as edges and colours, but there is no sign that they reconstruct patterns or put together features to form objects. Bees detect motion but have no perception of what it is that moves, and certainly they do not recognize "things" by their shapes. Yet they clearly see well enough to fly and find food with a minute brain. Bee vision is therefore relevant to the construction of simple artificial visual systems, for example for mobile robots. The surprising conclusion is that bee vision is adapted to the recognition of places, not things. In this volume, Adrian Horridge also sets out the curious and contentious history of how bee vision came to be understood, with an account of a century of neglect of old experimental results, errors of interpretation, sharp disagreements, and failures of the scientific method. The design of the experiments and the methods of making inferences from observations are also critically examined, with the conclusion that scientists are often hesitant, imperfect and misleading, ignore the work of others, and fail to consider alternative explanations. The erratic path to understanding makes interesting reading for anyone with an interest in the workings of science but particularly those researching insect vision and invertebrate sensory systems.
