In diesem Buch legt Oliver Elbs die wissenschaftstheoretischen (mapologischen) Grundlagen für eine nicht-reduktionistische Neuro-Ästhetik. Der äußerst allgemeine, abstrakte und sprachlich präzise definierte Rahmen erlaubt es, fundamentale Probleme einer Bildwissenschaft (ausgehend von Vermeer, Wölfflin sowie Barnett Newman) und Musikwissenschaft (Kontrapunkt, Richard Wagner) bis ins Kleinste zu untersuchen. Dabei werden außerdem mehrere neuro-ästhetische Experimente - teils bis ins Detail ausgearbeitet - für eine praktische Umsetzung vorgeschlagen. Ein mapologisches Vorwort zu einer Filmtheorie (im Allgemeinen) beschließt diese neuroästhetischen Grundlegungen.

'Proportio' features specially commissioned artworks by contemporary artists, 20th century masterpieces, Old Master paintings, archaeological artefacts, as well as architectural models and a large library of historical books on proportions. All these works provide a lens to help us see what proportion can teach us about the essential design of the present and how we can use this knowledge to create a blueprint for the future. This exhibition is an opportunity to explore universal proportions and an invitation to reflect upon the interconnectedness of our universe. 'Proportio' includes newly commissioned installations by contemporary artists such as Marina Abramovíc, Anish Kapoor, Massimo Bartolini, Rei Naito, Michaël Borremans, Ettore Spaletti, along with existing masterpieces by Ellsworth Kelly, Carl André and Sol Lewitt, as well as antiquities, Old Masters and antique architectural models.

Doctor Felix Hoffmann's life is textbook success: it's a life filled with medical work, televised soccer games, and the chill of German beer. Yet, when a former patient shows up dead by causes unknown, Hoffmann signs a death certificate that may be his own. Curiosity and sheer medical devotion propel him to investigate. However, his autopsy order goes unfulfilled as the body is cremated and hospital records vanish. Soon, Hoffmann discovers a diagnosis of conspiratorial proportions.
