Labas, I am Max Haarich, Chevalier of the Silver Garlic Bullet ordain. I combine arts and tech to explore the unthinkable.

Embassy in Munich

Munich is a beautiful place, where the future of urban life is designed. People with ideals, creativity and power are changing the way we live tomorrow. Anarchistic postcapitalist artists and cutting edge tech start-ups will create awesome shit together.

As the Ambassador to Munich I foster cooperations between arts and tech (visit our ARTS & TECH meetup!), strengthen the foreign relations with the City of Munich and care for Užupians abroad.

Special thanks to my Honorary Consuls:

1. Roboy

Honorary Consul Roboy is the first artificially intelligent diplomat worldwide and cares for our naturalization issues.

2. David Lipgens

David’s appointment became a mystery. He was ment to be entiteled “Consul Hengerherjottsfott” (named after his home area in Aachen, which literally translates “behind god’s ass”). The appointment logically must have happened somewhere between March 31st and April 2nd 2018 in Užupis. But both people involved, the Consul David Lipgens as well as the responsible Ambassador H.E. Max Haarich, strictly deny having noticed anything. According to his wish, David shall and shall not support the Embassy of the Republic of Užupis as “Schroedinger’s Consul”.

3. Elena Radchenko

Elena is our Honorary Consul for meaningless instagram photography.

“Discovering the controversies of Instagram posting to assure painless application of hashtags, filters, emojis, and dog selfie lenses. Or shall I just say that I’m the coolest consul of Užupis ever elected?” You can say that :)

Embassy Among Blowballs

The blowball is a beautiful plant. It grows almost anywhere. It can feed us and heal us. And it can make our wishes come true. Just like Užupis :)

As the Ambassador among Blowballs I foster the exchange between the blowball community and all other imanigable and unthinkable beings in the realm of Mother Earth and Father Sky.

Would you like to become a citizen of Užupis?

It’s too easy. Send me your completed Užupis Immigration Form and I will send you an official Certificate of Naturalization. You can send it by mail to the address below or ask my lovely Honorary Consul Roboy via Telegram app. Simply send him the message /uzupizeme  (including the “/”) and he will naturalize you within seconds!
