“ Es ist das Schicksal der Interpreten, die Besorgnis ihrer Autoren vor dem Unliebsamen und Ärgerlichen in ihrer Konsequenz nicht teilen zu müssen. Auch darauf beruht der als -Hermeneuti-     bezeichnete Vorgang, es könne einem Autor mehr abgelesen und nachgewiesen werden, als er selbst zu sagen bereit gewesen sei, vielleicht zu denken riskiert hätte “

                                                            Hans Blumenberg “ Beschreibung des Menschen “ ( Rubrik Zeitbewusstsein und humane Reflexion s. 152/153 )

“Reading the world has a long tradition. Philosophers have given it the name hermeneutics. The legend says that hermeneutics is named after the messenger god Hermes, who translated the incomprehensible messages of the gods and interpreted them so that they became understandable for everyone. This interpretation was a language-based translation of the divine utterances. To read the world means to verbalize it. Reading the world competes with reading a book. The world turns into a book of nature: “

You wake up in the morning and what`s going on in your mind and what you will or/and have to do? Booted up physiologically ( may be triggered by a device like Alexa as buzzer with introductions and commentaries for the day ) normally you prepare for the day ( nutrition e.g. coffee, finishing metabolic processes, preparing for the day ( business, work, checking your smartphone ( meetings, travels etc.) and so on  ) Most of it is done more or less automatically. Not so much “ free will “, more trained by education ending in routine So what´s going on in the “ Living World - Lebenswelt ) that  puts you in the positon to behave in that way? Categorizing the factors of behavioral influences hermeneutics of the world ( ontological and noetic ( Geist and Sein to. Sosein)) a lot of “ arts “ are necessary explaining this synergy.

                                                                                   Build by Man after a long history of “ development “ - Environment entropy and negantropy

Where do this “ Arts “ come from, and what has shaped your “ Noetic Apparatus “ being capable to find orientation in a global BigDataJungle in a complex and complicated Dasein produced by “ Homo Sapiens “ The only mammal on earth with  a developed inductive and deductive sense forming ( may be deforming ) nature by consuming its laws and commodities producing a Sosein like that shown in the photo above, and how to live with it. Let´s talk about imagination of progress, fantasy, illusion, entropy and negantropy, and the evaluation to accept it. But at first you have to learn a lot about the relations and interdependences of “ Modern Life in the Anthropocene “ like Ulysses in Urbanana. Never heard of Urbanana? It´s a brand for a polycentric region normally called RhineRuhrArea. An area in a country named Germany in a continent called Europe on a planet called Earth. Significants for organized societies spacially specified. Why Urbanana? Because it is a complex and heterogenous  construct with a long history and development in the midst of Europe between and connected to other metropolitan areas like Amsterdam, London, Berlin, Paris, Munich, Zurich and so on. Urbanana apriori is only a word coined for the reason to unite a lot of towns in one item. A title of a story with several parts and chapters. A serial novel of our times perfoming between urban and rural life, between industry and agriculture, animated by culture, science and sports ( e.g. ), connected by rivers and harbours, streets, railroads, airports building a paradigmatical syntax not only for the cities around but also for developed and  emerging countries to analyse its hermeneutics from Dortmund to Düsseldorf, from Duisburg to Bonn and Wuppertal to Aachen via, Essen, Bochum, Cologne and so on.

Hermeneutics of a journey - Self experience and experience of the other combined with self awareness during reflecting functionality - Interoperationality in “ materiellen Sein “ ( being in res extensa )

What is a journey or what can it be? May be it is a metaphor of your  life or life as a whole describing the encompassiing of human existence - starting a reflective “ Consciousness Tour “ in URBANANA with an open mind from Neandertal ( archaic living area of Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis  https://www.neanderthal.de/en/home.html ) to Cologne ( German Space Area ( Training Camp for astronauts in Köln-Wahn http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Space_Engineering_Technology/Deutsches_Zentrum_fuer_Luft-_und_Raumfahrt_DLR   in cooperation with  European Space Area in Köln-Deutz http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Human_and_Robotic_Exploration/Astronauts/The_European_Astronaut_Centre  ).

What can you gain? At first an overview on a region with a long tradition and development, starting from scratch ( Neandertal )  to a sophisticated “ World “ today shaped by roughly 11 millions inhabitants with a long tradition and development. A living space of high cultural complexity with business applications of all kind, universities to support the maintenance and ongoing change of the region and thw planet as a whole, cultural institutions like theaters, museums, orchestras, think tanks of all kinds with agendas for the public etc. ), and entertainment and leisure from shows to sport with arenas, parks and for environment integrated aktivities e.g. cycling intercommected by traffic systems , powered by an electric mix to serve electronic devicés for orientation in this complex and complicated rural/urban formation. assisted by services to serve the well being of eveeryone.
