GRAND ANALOG ELECTRICS moves between two poles: rationality/physics with precision, natural laws, materials science, acoustics, and aesthetics/fine-art with form and proportion as ‘sound as an art object.’ GRAND ANALOG ELECTRICS duality connects two seemingly contradictory worlds: empirical physics and metaphysical beauty. Art as applied science is reminiscent of Bauhaus and Renaissance thinking. Our concept of exnovation is aimed not only at analogue techniques, but also at a cultural critique of the concept of progress. GRAND ANALOG ELECTRICS sees itself as one of the guardians of a different modernity.
The entire philosophy of TIMEstandard LLC and GRAND ANALOG ELECTRICS is fundamentally shaped by two of the most significant mathematicians of our time: the Russian Grigori Perelman and the Frenchman Alain Connes. While Perelman revolutionized the foundations of geometry and topology with his groundbreaking proof of the Poincaré conjecture, Connes opens up entirely new perspectives on the structure of space, time, and matter with his noncommutative geometry. For us, both thinkers rank among the most influential intellectuals of our time and are fundamentally transforming how we understand reality.
