Release quarters are working plans.

01 / 05Working title
Lífve cover study: deep navy hardcover with a sunlit horizon seen through a circular opening
Cover study · 24 September 2026

Economy, society, philosophy

Lífve

Working title · Lífve and techno-individualism

How should society be organized when AI transforms work, ownership and power?

Planned releaseQ4 2026

About the book

AI changes who can create, who owns the tools and who benefits. Lífve develops a social architecture for that transition: integrated ecosystems that bring income, work, housing, care, learning and belonging together around a person's development. People should be able to choose between complete ways of living, leave them, or build their own. Sapience is the institution through which I intend to build toward this future, beginning with useful products and independent ventures. The argument connects individual freedom, fair access to opportunity, economic strength and responsibility to future generations.

Creators and commerce

Creatommerce

Working title · Creatommerce

What does it take for creators, brands and their customers to build a lasting business together?

Planned releaseQ1 2027

About the book

A creator's recommendation can start a purchase. What happens next determines whether the business works: the offer, the customer experience, returns, margins and how the creator shares in the result. This book examines that whole relationship—and how to tell whether a collaboration created value beyond views and clicks.

03 / 05Working title
Restart Germany cover study: white hardcover with a bold blue title and people crossing between civic spaces
Cover study · 24 September 2026

Values and structural reform

Restart Germany

Wertekonservativ. Strukturprogressiv.

Working title · Restart Germany

Germany needs two restarts at once: a shared foundation of values and a state that can act again.

Planned releaseQ1 2027

About the book

A blueprint rather than another catalogue of problems: the book links stalled reforms to a possible Germany in 2040 and a programme across major policy fields. Its argument is that structural reform will not last without shared values, while values alone change little without institutions that can act. Each proposal is meant to specify a legal basis, identify who would carry it out and set a deadline.

04 / 05Current title
The Physics of Desire cover with nine aligned layers and one orange signal bending at the weakest layer
Current cover direction · The Physics of Desire

Product design

The Physics of Desire

Why some products are loved, kept, and spread

Current title

What do the seven deadly sins reveal about desire? Why might companies like Nestlé and TikTok be role models for product design despite their reputations?

Planned releaseQ2 2027

About the book

What makes someone want a product, trust it and return to it? The book follows those questions from the first encounter to habit and recommendation. It connects human needs with the details of product design, including a harder question: does the product leave people glad they chose it?

05 / 05Working title
Waldorf, Steiner and AI cover study: natural linen with an illustrated tree flowing into geometric lines
Cover study · 24 September 2026

Education, craft, technology

Waldorf, Steiner & AI

Education in the age of artificial intelligence

Working title · Waldorf, Steiner & AI

What should children learn when a machine can give any answer and do all the work?

Planned releaseQ2 2027

About the book

At Waldorf, I learned through making: metal, fabric, wood, theatre and work with the earth. At home, an old Fujitsu opened a different world of software and self-taught discovery. This book will bring those experiences together. What do Waldorf and Rudolf Steiner still offer education? Where do their ideas need questioning? And how do children learn to judge, create and act for themselves alongside increasingly capable machines?

Poem · written 2012/13

Short fall for greatness and life

I don't like playing cards,Some less thought they were smart,So they just started playing,Now everyone is gaming,The world plays black, Black Peter.

More Peters black are coming,They're made to hold the game,Is gets not wild, but wilder,A shame not made to game,I didn't play, but watched itand noticed what to do,While watching, I just started,A net just made for you.

Cause everyone was playingand no one looked around,The abyss big and growingPrepared to bring us down.

And when first started falling,They started crying out,But when they just stopped brawling,They were not dead, but out.

The net just started living,The life just went to call,The rest of people playing,To fall.
