Never Ending Stories
de Aleida Assmann, Peter Sloterdijk, Stefan Klein
"In today's world, the loop seems to be virtually ubiquitous--whether in music, on the internet, in video art, or in hotel lobbies and living rooms, where monitors present the endless crackling of an open fire or fish swim around in aquariums. At the same time, the self-contained circuit, the endless loop, has been an essential topos of cultural history and philosophy since antiquity. With "Never-Ending Stories", the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg presents, for the first time worldwide, a formally and thematically, as well as spatially and temporally wide-ranging research project dedicated to the interdisciplinary phenomenon of the endless loop in art, film, architecture, music, literature and cultural history."--Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg website (https://www.kunstmuseum-wolfsburg.de/exhibitions/never-ending-stories-the-loop-in-art-film-architecture-music-literature-and-cultural-history).
