The work refers to the title and the graphic design of the Profil, an Austrian centre-left weekly. The word ‘wahrsagen’, which means ‘fortune-telling’, is accompanied by a photograph of the inside of a hand. This is an ironic commentary on whether it is possible for the media and the public opinion to influence the future.
