About Regi

From philosophy to software, from Berlin to Tokyo: no shortcuts!

But how to communicate this bandwidth of interests and experiences? I tried it with various separate websites, but that’s just inconvenient to keep them also separately updated. I will still keep them like www.reginald-gruenenberg.de (German) or www.politische-subjektivitaet.de (German), but I hope I have found the right way by publishing my ideas, impressions and experiences here in English.

My main business is the development and sales of our Interactive Streaming technology iSound. We are running two companies for this purpose, Audiantis GmbH in Germany/Berlin and Audiantis Japan K.K. in Japan/Tokyo (www.audiantis.com). For this reason I am shuttling all the time between the two cities.

I have also started a publishing house here in Berlin (www.perlenverlag.de). Now the first books have been published and more will follow. We are about to apply iSound technology to the website of this publisher.

Finally I am writing a lot myself, literature and science. I will finish in 2008 my historical novel Shiboruto. It’s about a German physician who went 1823 to Japan and introduced western sciences to the Japanese intellectuals and scientists. He is a hero in Japan because he is actually one of the “Fathers of Modern Japan”.

I am also fascinated with astronomy and cosmology. I have written an essay on the existence of extraterrestrial life. Under the title of The Uniqueness Hypothesis I state that life has only emerged once in the history of the universe and that was here on Earth. This hypothesis is the only one that fits to the facts gathered by astronomers and astrobiologists. And this hypothesis has a huge advantage: it can fail. If you are interested you are kindly invited to download the essay here: The Uniqueness Hypothesis

My next big project is The Secret of Gravity. I have some ideas about the nature of gravitation and why it has not been understood so far. I hope I will be able to explain on this basis why there is no such mysterious thing as “dark matter”.

My wife has another wonderful blog here. I would be happy if I could read it. For the time being I enjoy the pictures.
