Two revolutionize the world of telecommunication! Telecommunication without cable, glass fibre or satellites is not possible? Wireless communication makes us totally independent and always present? The video shows the paranormal childhood of these two mediums who grew up in South America and first met around ten years ago at a dream research project at the University of Utrecht, Netherlands.

Since then they have been working together as a sucessful team in the field of research and propagation of new, independent methods of telecommunication which are able to operate completely without conventional medias such as cable, glass fibre or satellites. They give lectures and seminars throughout the world and impart to the participants the technique of brain balancing, a method of telecommunication which is based solely on the concentration of one‘s own energy. They hereby revive the ability of telepathy (medial mailing) which is inherent to every individual but was long thought to be lost. This technique is presented in a catchy and easily comprehensible training part.

Nina Fischer (*1965 in Emden) and Maroan el Sani (*1966 in Duisburg) have been working together since 1993 in film and photography projects that focus primarily on urban spaces and collective memory. As a duo, they have participated in numerous international exhibitions, including Manifesta 13, Marseille 2020, Videonale, Bonn 2019, Media City Seoul Biennale 2014, 2012, Istanbul Biennale 2007, Liverpool Biennale 1999, and the Berlin Biennale 1998. Fischer and el Sani live and work in Berlin.
