Nature and purpose of the website
This is a private autobiographical project about contemporary history. It documents Mario Obst’s personal experiences as a political prisoner in East Germany and places documents from the Ministry for State Security’s records in their historical context.
The page About this project — remembrance and transparency explains how the website is created, the role of artificial intelligence and why transparency matters to me.
