I would also like to introduce myself - I have been following N.E.X.U.S. since May now. Ulrich Gausmann brought it to my attention. I hadn't really introduced myself properly yet - I'll simply follow up on Ulrich Gausmann: in the spring, he was my last planned lecture event during 3 1/2 years of association work that arose from Corona (via Deggendorf Miteinander e.V. [www.deggendorfmiteinander.de], Association for Democracy & Self-Determination).

Somehow that wasn't meant to be anymore (the resonance on the board was no longer there - according to my analysis, because many people there are still in the process of realization and not yet in the process of action) - I got into organizing events during the C-time because in the 2000s I had organized music events for 5 years as part of club culture (from experimental to danceable) in Freiburg im Breisgau at the E-Werk. I was able to bring this experience in, plus content has always been my primary focus. I had long engaged critically with the system. One point, for example, was during my vocational training as a wholesale merchant at the age of 16–18, where you learn that humans are recorded as a factor of production in accounting... during that time I also began to engage more deeply with things. One school subject in a commercial apprenticeship is economics after all - so I read deeply into theories back then, including “Adam Smith”.

In addition, my passion for music started at that time - it was the era of the “Golden Era of Hip-Hop”, and there was also something like consciousness hip-hop. A musical form of expression by disadvantaged Black people in the US. I also engaged deeply with that, and so it happened that I also read books about Malcolm X and Martin Luther King... through that you learn how the state apparatus played a role... through this and through a personal traumatic experience in childhood (dyslexia issues - was taught to write right-handed even though I am left-handed. Result: German grade 6 fail, Math grade 1 straight A. One day during reading aloud, the German teacher pulled me out of class and brought me down one grade - my brain flooded during this event), a strong empathy developed in me along with a credo at 18 after my vocational training: “I don’t want to sell shit!”. Authenticity became a factor…

Because of this, I had also engaged early on with psychological topics, which then led to transpersonal analyses (Ken Wilber) in my early 20s. A second-chance education followed (I wanted to study cultural studies back then) via Hamburg and Berlin, which I didn't complete, however. But I studied autodidactically... it was already the time when word was going around that if you really want to penetrate things, you don't go to university anymore...

So I have now engaged critically with the system for over 30 years and have broadened my horizon all the way to understanding cosmic laws. The economic system is of particular concern to me - what is taking place there is simply too sick (just take the income disparities). I wish for a different way of doing business - there are already projects and people doing it differently, but I haven't found access yet. Through my empathy and my zodiac sign Aquarius, it is a matter of heart to me that we work on better structures for people!

And I have the feeling that I am in the right place here now, and it's about pushing forward with strong will all the content that Josh has connected so magnificently... even if you don't know what will come of it, I believe it is important to walk this path!!
