Traumawien was an independent publishing house founded in 2010 and dissolved in 2016.[1][2]

Traumawien displayed print books of conceptual writers and artists such as Audun Mortensen, Ubermorgen, Oswald Wiener[3] and published, among others, Mimi Cabell and Jason Huff's experimental reworking of the classic American Psycho[4][5][6] which was exhibited at the Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume in 2012.[7]

Traumawien completed their initial publication series with the e-book system 'Ghostwriters' on copyright and user exploitation[8][9][10][11][12] and disseminated a 42.000 titles e-book torrent contaminated with advertising slogans[13][14] in 2013.

From 2013 to 2015 the publishers event 'Artclub Rave Lecture[15]' – a working synthesis of industrial techno and literary reading/lecture, dubbed by Deutschlandfunk as 'the most radical performance[16]' 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.[17]

Also in 2014 a manifesto[18] in "Manifeste für eine Literatur der Zukunft" with Neue Rundschau/S. Fischer Verlag/Frankfurt was released.[19][20]

Meme Products were presented at 21erHaus Vienna Summer 2016.[21]

The publisher cites conceptual writer Vanessa Place as a crucial influence.

Traumawien was dissolved in 2016 "due to artistic differences".[2]
