Sebastian Platten

From a distant, ancient galaxy, the star pirates, the asteroid empire, unscrupulous thugs, hypnotically purple balcony pond roses, butcher orcs, root shredder ticks, swamp tomato frogs, fear-induced coughs, cuddly Kama Sutra slugs, or the melancholic water people of Aquahyd and the tree monastery of the forest monks, Sebastian Plattens book STERNENPIRATEN tells the story.

So, if you want to learn something about perhaps the most dreamy universe of all time or about the best-smelling war in the universe, the war of the flowers, you should embark on an adventurous journey with the human boy Leto through the jungle-like areas of the mist-shrouded forest moon Andora. The flora and fauna native there seem to know no bounds and are blessed with lush, wild life.

In addition to the external plot, dreams and visions form a second level connected to reality, which introduces the book's cosmos and clarifies to the reader that they are at the beginning of an adventure that will extend far beyond the boundaries of the forest moon in subsequent volumes and will be the scene of gigantic space battles.

Atmospherically, the book is a mixture of classic fantasy elements like Michael Ende's THE NEVERENDING STORY, George Lucas's fairytale-like STAR WARS, and the increasingly idiosyncratic, ironic-sarcastic style of Douglas Adams's "THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY" as the story progresses.

X-Beat-TV, the video format of Doku-X, was conceived at the end of the 2000s as a competitor to the then-known internet TV show "Ehrensenf". I wrote the moderation texts as well as press and blog contributions for the website Doku-X.

Voidversum is the latest project by my cousin and me. Here we bring the poems, stories, and songs we've written since our youth to new life, both musically and visually. It's a mix of English and German lyrics – the latter deliberately coated with a nostalgic singer/songwriter patina in the style of classical poems. So far, 4 albums with 40 song lyrics have been released.
