About the project

Concept and text Klaas Werner, Jascha Sommer, Kathrin Ebmeier
and Emese Bodolay

Anna Kpok invites you to experience a tram journey as a text adventure. What happens if the story depends on the decisions made by the reader – not on the placements in the book. Readers will embark on a journey through Essen, a journey between reality and speculation: what if coal mining had never happened? Or it had begun many centuries earlier?

The books were distributed at the flower store Große-Kock at Essen Central Station or at PACT Zollverein. The reading invited to ride the tram 107 until the stop of Stoppenberg. There once out of the tram, different options showed different paths through the area before the ride continued to Central Station or pact.

Language of the routes: German and a lot of other languages
