Dear Enemy
Richard Mathias Mueller was part of the Hitler Youth when he became a German soldier during WW II. He was imprisoned in an Allied camp in 1945, and narrowly escaped with his life. Years later, he discovered the writings of Canadian author James Bacque whose best-selling books recount the atrocities committed by the American and French troops against German prisoners. In 1991, Mueller contacted Bacque and a prolific correspondence began. The letters the two exchangedcollected in Dear Enemy for the first timehotly debate the controversial issues of WW II and the lasting effects it has had. Their discussions include prison camps, Germanys guilt, the Holocaust and, more recently, the alarming rise of the Right in European politics.
An Agent-Based Model of Heterogeneous Demand
Matthias Müller makes a case for the particular role of the demand side in research on innovation. Based on a complex agent-based simulation model, he analyzes the versatile mutual relationships between consumers and producers within the innovation process. Instead of oversimplifying the demand side, the book aims to apply important aspects which too often are only applied to the supply side, e.g., the heterogeneity and bounded rationality of economic actors embedded in networks. The results offer a new perspective on the innovation process, proving that the demand side and consumers are important drivers of innovation, which must be included in future research for a full picture.

Das Werk des 1961 geborenen und in Bielefeld und Köln arbeitenden Künstlers Matthias Müller bewegt sich am Übergang von Videokunst und Experimentalfilm. Er kombiniert in seinen Arbeiten Material aus den unterschiedlichsten Quellen: Found-footage-Sequenzen und selbst gedrehte Aufnahmen, analoges Film- und digitales Videomaterial, schwarzweiße und farbige Motive, die sich zu emotional überwältigenden Bilderströmen verdichten. Die vorherrschende Atmosphäre erinnert dabei an einen Zustand des Traums, des Zwischenbereichs zwischen Schlaf und Erwachen. Die Kraft seiner Arbeiten liegt neben der außerordentlich hohen und innovativen Qualität im ästhetischen Bereich vor allem in ihrer sta...
