Traumawien is a publishing house based in Vienna, founded as nonprofit Paradoxical Print Publishers[1] to release digital culture and text articulated as printed artifacts since 2010.

Traumawien displayed works of conceptual writers and artists such as Audun Mortensen, Ubermorgen, J.R. Carpenter, Ulrich Nausner, Anna Seipenbusch or Oswald Wiener[2] and published conceptual literature classic American Psycho[3][4][5] which was exhibited at the Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume in 2012.[6]

Traumawien completed their publication series with the e-book system 'Ghostwriters[7]' on copyright and user exploitation[8][9][10][11] and disseminated a 42.000 titles e-book torrent contaminated with advertising slogans[12][13] in 2013.

Since 2013 the publishers event 'Artclub Rave Lecture' - a working synthesis of acid techno and literary reading/lecture,[14] dubbed by Deutschlandfunk as 'the most radical performance[15]' at europes largest event for young literature 'Prosanova' - became a Vienna club scene check-point.

In 2014, Traumawien created an ongoing series of nonprofit products from Zazzle, an online merchandise print on demand service, customized with content appropriated from various social media.[16]
