What would it be like if there were a unique site for person-to-person interaction, social engagement and eventful conversations? Conversations about life, art, technologies, the purpose of our being and actions. Conversations that are inspired by the creativity of all disciplines, which can be experienced in a multi-sensory and diverse manner. — Indeed, that would be paradise! The Kommunikationsparadies provides space for real innovation! The foundation was laid in 2000 by the ›New York Manhattan Zeitenwende‹ initiative. Today, the Kommunikationsparadies, based in the Gutenberg City of Mainz, is an interactive, multisensory space of encounter and experience for art, communication and technology, which combines social media effects and person-to-person dialogues. In addition, we identify highly talented communication experts, and motivate and support these in a targeted manner. Many thousands of visitors from dozens of countries around the world have been guests of Zeitenwende activities. Personal encounters accompany special, internationally-oriented projects, including exhibitions, workshops, seminars, salon discussions, concerts and much more. Please note: the Kommunikationsparadies is an independent initiative that is not oriented towards profit-making, but rather towards covering costs, and it is open to all who can and wish to contribute meaningfully. Either with personal involvement, presentations, benefits in kind or donations. Participation in projects and activities are by invitation. Our guests are always free to contribute to covering the costs of participation with a donation. We are happy to discuss details in person.

2. The ”Kommunikationsparadies“ is an independent
initiative that is not oriented towards profit-making,
but rather towards catching Gutenberg’s spirit of
invention in his hometown Mainz/Germany.
The guiding principle:
Art is communication.
And communication is (an) art.

3. The Kommunikationsparadies is open to all
who can and wish to contribute meaningfully.
Either with personal involvement,

4. The Kommunikationsparadies
is not ”L’art pour l’art”. Rather, it addresses the
cultural & creative economy* with their specific
requirements as the third largest sector after
automotive and mechanical engineering !

5. Driven by creativity
we celebrate the art of living and
living art. By conversations.
Because we have to give more space in our
everyday lives to art and to artists — not as
an element of entertainment, but fundamentally
as a catalyser of our understanding.

6. Language is the measure of all things.
OK! But conversations finish!
Conversations that are inspired by the
creativity of all disciplines, which can be experienced in a
multisensory and diverse manner.
