about

The audio piece from 1992 was composed by Alfred 23 Harth on the basis of a precise protocol of the Chernobyl reactor disaster. It sets out the engineers' approach to the emerging nuclear desaster and their reactions to it.
Title, text excerpts and closing word of the French anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss come from the text "Memoria Eschatologica" of A23H's brother, the literary scholar Dietrich Harth, in the later book „Mnemosyne Formen und Funktionen der kulturellen Erinnerung“ („Mnemosyne Forms and Functions of Cultural Memory“) published by him and Aleida Assmann in 1993 (Fischer Taschenbuch Verlag).

Publication of this 1992 audio piece by A23H in memory of thirty-five years after the Chernobyl nuclear desaster in April 1986 and ten years after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear desaster in March 2011, both classified as Level 7 on the International Nuclear Event Scale.
