The moment between awakening and rebellion. (© DREIFISCH)

A change of perspective that does not stop at analysis.
A plea for intellectual autonomy.
A call to not only think your own thoughts - but to shape them.

"Vom Erkennen zum selbstbestimmten Gestaltung Is part of GEDANKENDUSCHE - a linguistic impulse that goes beyond criticism. Instead of getting lost in lamenting the status quo, thinking is opened up in the direction of responsibility, freedom and action.

At the center is the question:
How can we regain control over our thinking in a time of permanent crisis - and draw new possibilities for action from this?

Between thought shower, word composition and discursive sketch, the work formulates an encouragement to intellectual self-empowerment. It is aimed at those for whom mere observation is no longer enough.

The language is clear, rhythmic, pointed - without simplifying.
Intended as a linguistic wake-up call in the stream of permanent observation.

This THOUGHT SHOWER is more than a linguistic inventory.
It is a wake-up call - to all those who have observed, waited or hesitated for too long.
Because the decisive factor has already happened:
The political linguistic landscape has shifted, outrage has become normal, and our own powers of judgment are coming under increasing pressure.

"Vom Erkennen zum selbstbestimmten Gestaltenstarts right here - in the moment after the analysis. It not only names conditions, but also focuses on the question: What follows from this?

Those who reapproach their own power of thought and judgement will recognize:
The answers do not lie on the outside, but begin on the inside.
In the way we process information.
In the attitude with which we approach reality.

It's not about activism. It's about awareness.
Not about being right. It's about regaining spiritual self-determination.

The work unfolds as a linguistically condensed space of thought - rhythmic, clear, focused.
It does not aim to convince. It wants to entice you to think for yourself.

The fact that this text later crystallized as part of a possible trilogy,
may play a role in future readings.
But today it stands on its own -

as an invitation to pause.
To look.
To remember what has already happened.

Not only on the outside,
but in one's own thinking.
In the silent space between stimulus and reaction.

What we recognize,
we do not have to evaluate immediately -
but we must no longer overlook it.

Recognizing means
Taking responsibility
for what is.

And using this to shape the next step.

Content focus
"From recognition to self-determined designfocuses on the following topics:

Welcome - I am Anselm Bonies, a creative companion who sees the interplay between color, form and design as the heart of my work.

In my world, everything revolves around the symbiosis of photography, film and graphic design. For me, creative work means not only creating impressive works, but also telling stories and opening up dialogs - in close collaboration with you. I see myself as someone who not only designs, but also accompanies. As a creative partner, I work with you to develop visual experiences that leave a lasting impression and get to the heart of your message.

What can you expect from me?
Whether you want to build a strong brand identity, create a unique visual experience or tell a story that touches your audience, I have the experience, flair and technical know-how to bring your ideas to life. My goal is to realize your vision as precisely and individually as possible, creating a creative process that not only meets your expectations, but exceeds them.

Your project - unique and personal
My work is more than just creating images and designs. It is a process of transformation: together we develop an idea that takes shape, comes to life and leaves its mark. My focus is always on translating your message into powerful, visual forms of expression - customized and tailored to your goals.

Get to know me
How others see me? The best way to find out is to see for yourself. Give me a call or send me an e-mail and experience how your ideas become tangible, creative works. I look forward to getting to know you and breaking new ground together - where color, form and design merge to create unique moments.

Curious? Let's get talking!

Would you like to find out more about Gedankendusche: Critical thinking through creative action, conduct an interview or plan a publication? I'm happy to answer any questions, press inquiries or creative collaborations.

THOUGHT SHOWER: Becoming visible - instead of being represented
I have never met her. And yet she is there. In my line. In my gaze. In the decision, to leave something out - to show something. Catharine Rembert. She did not teach how to design beautifully. She asked: Why? Why this line? Why this room? Why exactly like this - and not otherwise? For her, design was not an ornament. It was attitude. Clarity. And today? It is my origin. My mental grounding. My benchmark for stillness. When I work - whether with paper, space, with voice or body - then there is always something of

THOUGHT SHOWER: Current power strategies 1930s vs. today
THOUGHT SHOWER: Current power strategies 1930s vs. today
We hear it again and again: "We defend democracy." A phrase that appears on posters, shines in election manifestos and comes out of the mouths of politicians when it comes to justifying decisions. But what does it actually mean? Are they really defending democracy - or are they defending their own power? The principle of political doublethink works according to a simple pattern: two seemingly contradictory statements are sold as true

GEDANKENDUSCHE: The manipulated view - thinking errors in everyday life
Look at the display. A quick photo - but what do we really see? The camera recalculates, enhances colors, smoothes contrasts, deletes details. What remains is not reality, but an optimized version of it. Our thinking works in exactly the same way. Cognitive distortions impose invisible filters on us. They guide our perception without us realizing it - not only in the way we see the world, but also in

Between the low season and cost pressure, between discount campaigns and the desire for proximity, the tourism industry is caught in a silent field of tension: It wants to remain hospitable - but not work below value. It wants to be accessible - and survive at the same time. "7 Thoughts: Self-mortification in the tourism industry" is not an industry report or an analysis. It is a literary-documentary impulse that combines economic reality with

Press release for the publication of "In the Twilight of Memory" (2025)
An old piano. Out of tune. Dust on the keys. A single note - rough, crooked, honest. An instrument that has been silent for a long time - and is now beginning to tell its story. Not perfect, but true. A sound emerges in the darkness that is not new, but returns. This is how the door to memory opens - not with a chord, but with the quiet breath of the past. What does memory sound

GEDANKENDUSCHE: Shadows of democracy
In the 1930s, democracy was still young and vulnerable in many parts of Europe. It was seen as a symbol of freedom and progress, but at the same time its rules opened the door to those who wanted to undermine it. Certain political forces used the democratic structures to gain power legally - only to then gradually undermine and ultimately abolish the foundations of this democracy. What do we learn
Making economic areas visible - Why a business location catalog for Vorpommern-G …
A business location without visibility remains unused - an island without a nautical chart, no beacon for investors and companies. But this is precisely the reality of many locations in Vorpommern-Greifswald: they exist, but nobody sees them. The new thought shower "Making economic areas visible" questions why there is still no central, transparent recording of business locations - and what economic opportunities are being lost as a result. No development without visibility
