Futurological Congress – Essay online

kongress

The Great Pyramid has been introduced to the public at the Futurological Congress, organized by the Westfaelischer Kunstverein in Munster for the first time. The WKV had invited researchers and artists to reflect on the future and present projects. Of particular interest besides the Great Pyramid: Marjetica Potrc´s positive reinterpretation of the “balkanization”-idea and Hans Bernhard´s report about his work with ETOY-Corporation and ubermorgen.com.

Our concept was invariably well received. First customers asked for reservations.

The Munster lecture in German is available as a PDF-download now. A translation into English will be uploaded by early February.

The beta of thegreatpyramid.org is online at last. The site will be fully functional in a couple of days. We will present more detailed information about the Great Pyramid, updates on our project work and information on funeral cultures throughout the world. Welcome.

The Great Pyramid

The Great Pyramid is potentially any human being’s grave. As monumental as it is affordable, it serves those of all nationalities and religions. Stone for stone, it grows with every burial and becomes the largest structure in human culture.

Outlasting personal physical existence is something that the Egyptian pyramids could promise only a few. Yet this path is open to every individual. Rather than hastily burying one another or allowing our ashes to be scattered, as a small stone in the pyramid we can remain part of our species’ constantly shifting and ever-expanding tableau.

Germany, which has found its way into the new global world only with great difficulty, has found another project to maintain a permanent leading edge. The construction, and above all operation of the Great Pyramid in structurally weak Eastern Germany will be a completely new kind of sustainable economic catalyst.

Millions of visitors will travel to the site every year to look at their potential gravesites or participate in obsequies. Churches and spiritual congregations from around the world will settle there, offering a view of the pyramid. The employment effects within the labor-intensive services sector will be enormous.

The “Friends of the Great Pyramid” gather essential structural and economic concepts, promote the Great Pyramid’s assembly and lay the foundation for its construction.

Our project is funded by the Kulturstiftung des Bundes, from their “The Future of Labour” endowment fund.
