Conversation Excerpts
Gerbert Schwaighofer: “I’m probably one of the very few who first read the book after seeing the film … What inspired you to make this book? Karin Mairitsch: “Tears actually.”
Karin Mairitsch: “It was important to me to formulate what the film mirrored to me and what resonated in me.”
Manuel Riemelmoser: “It’s basically about what happens in a person or what people can develop and build together … It is always such a mixture of concept-have and conceptlessness.”
Gerbert Schwaighofer: “That was the key word for me: ‘life laboratory’. As we talked for the first time about the moderation of the book, I asked you [Helmi Vent], do you see this rather as a sociological project, a political project or an educational project or as an art project. And then the word “life laboratory” helped me a lot. It’s all in one.“
