Christoph Ransmayr's first poetic work from 1982 tells of the disappearance of man, who - strictly according to the laws of logic - follows new science.

„Ein Entwässerungsprojekt oder Die Entdeckung des Wesentlichen“ ("A drainage project or The discovery of the essentials") bitterly meets Petr Eben's tragic organ cyle "Laudes" from the 1960s as part of the abo@MUMUTH of the Graz University of Music and Dramatic Arts.
