and tied it to divine and cultural commitments. Hence the worry about collective tasks crossed the life span of an individual. In contrast when one looks at the political guidelines of many communities today the horizon of time seems to narrow to periods of a few years despite the enormous expansion of dimensions of time in the various scientific disciplines. At the least the consequences and the commitments that tie our actions with the future are indefinite and abstract. In cities like Hamburg and Stuttgart building projects are pulled through with great haste what demon-strates that confidence in future generations is lacking. With the building of the Elbphilharmonie  no person in charge would consider a stop seriously because of lack of funding. Although relatively short construction periods are possible today so that  no longer work has to be imposed on several generations but without being asked the younger ones are encumbered with financial burdens that will strain communal households for decades and block other future enterprises. The state Baden-Wuerttemberg, the city Stuttgart and the Bundesbahn (German railway system) start the largest building project Europe's. Due to a 4 minutes⁴ reduced travel time  there will be digging for 7 years in problematic rock beds under the city with promises.  and building of 33km tunnels in the mountains, when one can reckon with uncontrollable increasing costs and at the same time announcing of tax relief.

The critical issue Murano is approaching are the dimensions that exceed individual life. These are dimensions that we can approach through philosophy and religion and by means of various sciences, and that we concretely face ourselves up to by buildings, technologies and our actions. But what happens when the technological aspects become separated from the mental challenges that are tied to them? With the realization of the technical possible our communities meanwhile are within the range of impact that natural forces entail when in no time at all they throw back the life of whole regions for indefinite times. The refusal by people in charge not to think and act in geological time dimensions is careless as it is known at latest since Hiroshima that human actions can take the devastating effects of natural forces. As the dimensions of depth found in religion have been lost on us it is necessary to establish ethics that helps us to understand the slowness with that mountains are formed and erode again; because if at all we experience in a span of life only few the surface of the earth forming earthquakes, landslides and floods as well as only a couple of centimeters growth of the top of the Himalaya or the low erosion of the Alp peaks that filled up an arm of the sea to the Padan Plain within hundreds of thousands of years.

The changes are so minimal that we miss them or as part of long time processes they won't enter our consciousness. As our philosophical and religious instruments for recording of what exceeds our imaginations have become dull, and catastrophic breaks are trivialized as unacceptable disturbances of the 'normality', our time horizon has narrowed in various aspects and can no longer keep pace with the technical possibilities. The works of artists like Murano are relevant in this context because they try to capture such dimensions and are about to develop instruments to make individual life exceeding times and time periods comprehensible.

III. The cathedrals of the present and the gadgets

1. Moving and flying cathedrals
The architects of "the cathedrals of the 20th century"⁵ used at first still architectural standards  and decorative elements from the past until the industrial building materials themselves could become form giving. After glassed carbon steel buildings of the19th century like the Crystal Palace in London namely expressionistic architects related to crystalline structures like Murano has linked here crudely and abstractly shaped in the form of styrfoam-plaster-elements and combined it with the four towers. At the end of the 1920s the first sky-scrapers with surfaces of steel, glass and concrete rose up to the sky in the metropolises.⁶ Even though globalization generated new and even higher sky scrapers in the 21st century the most ambitious projects are getting off the ground in the fields of fundamental research (cyclotrone) and energy supply (nuclear fusion reactors). And yet individual buildings are not drafted as widely visible landmarks but applaudable because of the technical sophistication connected with fundamental research. Often they even elude the looks because they remain below ground like graves or invisible for the eyes. In this connection the fact that this installation is suspended from the ceiling headlong becomes meaningful. In addition are building complexes no more to be viewed isolated, but they have to be connected with the infrastructure thus power generators, ports, airports, satellites and space stations. Here the schematic drawing which Murano produced of a refinery comes fully into effect. In order to tackle transport of goods and people of a worldwide economy ships, airplanes and space ships are developed that as temporary residences have characteristics as well as dimensions of buildings, whilst buildings contain building elements and materials from vehicle construction⁷ and architects help themselves with the design language of science fiction.

2. Drive and impulsion*
The schematic drawing of a jet engine traced by Murano enlarged 10-14 times onto the side wall of the EINSTELLUNGSRAUM shows a cut through a turbine as it was engineered for the power generating as well as impulsion for air traffic. Parallelly a second even more encompassing
