Article + interview in "uncube" magazine
The current issue of the online magazine "uncube" is dedicated to outer space featuring Michael´s artworks and an interview between Chief editor Sophie Lovell and Michael.
The issue is a journey through time and space, including an interview about Michael´s training as an astronaut, then a short wait for the Space Elevator, before blasting off through the stratosphere, dropping in on the International Space Station (for a bit of toilet training), and heading on with Lukas Feireiss to the Moon. Considering the space races, old and new, featuring Galina Balashova's beautiful designs for the Soyuz, Mir, and Buran, whilst looking at today's focus of action: mining rights and colony plans on Mars. With Ricardo Scofidio talking to uncube about the issues of space architecture, Klaus wondering what Mars will be like awash with starchitects and developers, and Herbert Wright proposing an out-of-body road map to colonising the stars, we've got the galaxy covered!
