Forgetful, distracted and foggy

There is an electric fish and there is lightning. Is electricity in fact a mysterious, quasi-magical force that can slay the living and revive the dead. Are shadows electric? I have to ask Tesla or Herz or Galvani.

Das elektrische Licht

The owls are not what they seem. Nothing is what it seems in the city of dreams and destruction.

First snow...

...will sometimes reveal events that nobody should know about. The Institute is confident and denies all knowledge about the tracks in the snow: " It could be anything".

beyond reach
