“Many correct decisions were made because the way for the wrong one was just not free.” [Hans Krailsheimer]
Human life involves making both easy and difficult decisions, including ones that affect the life of an individual or an entire community. Labyrinths can serve as a metaphor for human existence. Their intertwined path leads to the center, which represents individual successes and goals, after making a number of sharp turns. Like a person in a labyrinth, electricity also tries to find a way to get through a circuit, whereby it always selects the shortest path.
In the project “Kurzschluss” an electronic decision making circuit is constructed in the shape of a labyrinth. The form of the circuit thereby shows what its function is.
