Felix Schöppner - Wormhole

In what way does human sensory perception take place in a high-tech world for connections outside of what is apparently possible?

Perception is first of all the recognition of an object or state in our immediate environment with the help of our 5 senses. With the help of technical devices, we can exceed the limits that are set biologically for us and expand them many times. The perception of such, invisible subjects and states therefore often first takes place in an abstract way with values ​​that are assigned to certain parameters and can be visualized based on this. The clear way of representing values ​​is in a graphic, drawing, or a scaled model. Since size relationships play a decisive role here, in some cases, you are forced to not display the relationships of objects proportionally to one another in order to be able to ensure that they are clearly recognizable. The series “Cognition” deals with this topic by using terms from the fields of physics and astronomy and presenting them in simplified models.

These are the ways we can perceive the world around us today. But to be at this point, it took pioneers who expanded the limits and made them tangible. The first astronauts paved the way for a completely new, undeveloped space. It demanded enormous willpower and fearlessness from them, as they could not foresee whether they would survive their journeys into space.

A wormhole is the possibility of an explanation of how two places in the universe could be connected by an alternative route. Especially in science fiction, this phenomenon is often presented as a portal for traveling in time or between different universes. But rather, it raises the question of the form in which something can escape at the other end, and whether it can leave again, as they are thought to be very unstable.
