LOGIC, LANGUAGE, SCIENCE, TRUTH - and the LAW
- "Strictly a Science;" also "an Art." -Whately's Elements of Logic. Indeed ought we not to regard all Art as applied Science; unless we are willing, with "the multitude," to consider Art as "guessing and aiming well?" -Plato; Philebus.
Internal fraud and theft historically amounted for +70% of our corporate assignments. Now, external threats - via internet - account for the vast majority of our corporate and private missions. Also Walhallen / Bureau Ekman has evolved... Daring, deceit and surprise has brought many criminals resounding victories at very little cost. Questions like if, when, where, how and what occupy many internet investigators. As private detectives - private investigators we concentrate on "Why" and "Who".
"Adaptation is the law of tomorrow." Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose; ending crime by abolishing all laws? Overcoming difficulties mean we draw on our experiences to spot patterns and connections. The drifting focus of law enforcement agencies and national authorities is sometimes discombobulating, at other times charming. Perfectly balanced deterrents remain as elusive as the promised land. Let us device your démarche for the 21st century.

Private Detective Claes Ekman solves the largest football hooligan case as of today.
FROM WWW.YOUTUBE.COM
"Few professional titles are surrounded by such a romantic shimmer and manage to arouse such curiosity as that of the private detective. And that curiosity is not exactly quenched when you meet Claes Ekman, a man who at first glance seems to have walked straight out of a Humphrey Bogart film.
Claes, who has seen 400 detective films and solved thrice more ditto real investigator capers, dons the role of a fully-fledged private detective, complete with trench coat and bug detector. But who is he really? As the answer to the questions about Zlatan's nose lingers, new questions are raised about the investigator himself.
It is when we begin to get answers to these that the very premise of the film shakes to its foundations. What is our interest in a bronze nose really about and who decides what is true and false, right and wrong?" - Nils T. / Executive Movie Producer

(MOVIE COMPANY WANTED US TO WITHDRAW FILMTRAILER UNTIL FULL OFFICIAL RELEASE BY MARCH 2025.)
"Private Detective Claes Ekman - www.bureau-ekman.com - solves [as expected] the football hooligan case concerning the vandalized statue of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The case was unsolved for a few years, albeit Mr Ekman provides all the necessary and irrefutable / admissible evidence, admitted and palpable motive - even the 'corpus delicti' - and more... Do count and measure the cost of impunity! The full and whole movie will be coming to a cinema screen near you by March 2025.
'One needs power - absolute power - to prescribe what is truth and what is idiocy,' as Thomas Mann formulated it. Having a moral myopia on hand, most people choose to distance themselves and retreat into family life, like hostages. The state, however, stubbornly insists on a contract with the individual - against the family - and most submissively agree to it because anything else would cause a serious internal dissonance with their inner self, which still identifies strongly with the state. And then there is sports, with a certain 'fons et origo': a corporatism, a clan-style environment... We all know how much football matters - and how little. A football manager once said that 'football is a matter of life and death'. A feted football team owner thence retorted: 'It's more important than that,' adding, 'it is enrapturing but only a game, and meant to be fun. Assuring people that defeat is okay can empower them to take risks, thus making them likelier to succeed in general life. As much as winning, sport teaches you how to lose, and carry on.' Great men pass by silently. We live in a world in which the media makes morons famous people. Is it that exquisite balance of being really fun and deeply serious at the same time? This element of surprise 'can definitely be a secret sauce'. As an investigator I've realized there is physical bravery and there's courage. And they are quite different things. As a detective I finally understand what it is all about: being a doer rather than a talker, a fighter rather than an observer. When bent film critics, woke journalists or liberal and ignoble hacks lift their pens, using their warped but at times fertile brains, for serious attempts to objectively judge a film - objectively as a shield - one clearly hears the Klaxon horns at a distance. Who are these often bleak, watery, cantankerous individuals showing envy and permeating jaundice? They often reason, 'I would rather fail alone than succeed with you.' No man goes to battle to be killed. But they do get killed. Palabra por palabra. Many of these individuals spent a whole life being observers, although, ultimately in vain aiming for something more palpable. Their [better] source of advice comes from a profession that really knows how to pretend and perform: acting. There they might source quixotically valiant allies and expectant juggernauts - while dripping venom throughout the process of beating around the bush in never decreasing circles. Editorial advice and even pruning on the part of colleagues can not prevent them from meandering from one subject to another, however, believing that everybody else sounds barbarous - just like the ancient Greeks did (Barbara in Greek is a person you can't understand) - is to underestimate the understanding of the people. Most humans separate the world into 'I' and 'not-I', however, at the level of true reality our egoism is a very basic and fundamental error. Kant's 'Categorical imperative' (kategorischer Imperativ), as the ultimate commandment of reason, from which all duties and obligations derive, can best be thought of as a noumenon. A noumenon is knowledge posited as an object that exists independently of human sense, as opposed to phenomenon, which refers to any object of the senses. These expert film critics tend to measure the truth of processes in terms of effectiveness, whereas we - as private detectives / private investigators - tend to measure the truth of content in terms of reasoning and grounding. But to ignore the reasoning and grounding of these process-oriented, artificial-position approaches to the meaning of a movie experience is to ignore an opportunity to learn more about humanness. An original position - a situation in which rational, self-interested persons who have general knowledge about society and who appreciate the worth of moral principles - which best comport with fairness, will state that in some men the sight of other men at ounce arouses a hostile feeling, 'Not me!' There are others in whom it at once arouses a friendly interest: 'Me once more!'. The fly in the ointment is naturally that as private detectives / private investigators we are out there solving real crimes - as opposed to fictionalized dittos - showing authenticity, not being graduates from an Academy of Acting or a School of Theatre. Our motive is truth, our purpose is presentation; the latter on screen, or in court. Yes, at Bureau Ekman we are also mindful of the old maxim, 'Only weaklings suffer no criticism.' I admonish these academic critics to realize that telling the truth is not bragging. Truth is beauty. At Bureau Ekman we are not sticklers, albeit welshing [non-existent] readers and viewers analyzing detective fiction is for us out of sorts. These newspaper critics face some stern realities - the chickens are coming home to roost - and I expect some hints of sobering reflection. Throwing dirt is losing ground. Solve some enigma yourself, and get the attention of at least ten (10) or more individuals. To behave 'authentically' is to understand that we can make and remake ourselves by our actions and thus become what our acts define us as being.To talk rather than act is moral self-deception - 'mauvaise foi' (bad faith) - which involves our behaving as insensate things rather than 'authentic' human beings. In bad faith, we evade responsibility by not exploiting the possibilities of choice; in short, by not being fully human.
When considering the degree to which 'authenticity' is marketed as a substitute for value, echoes the words of George Burns. When asked his secret to success the sage and screen deity replied: 'You have got to be honest. If you can fake that you have got it made.' A cynik - one might say - is a person who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.
People are capable of Bad Faith to the most important general characteristic of consciousness itself, namely its being separated from the world of things by a gap or Nothingness. It is the experience of this gap which reveals itself to us first and foremost by our ability to negate propositions, to deny the truth, and to describe things not only truly but also falsely, which makes us conscious of ourselves as different and distinguishable from the world which surrounds us. In dire straits, tempers fray, truths are told, feelings run high and out of control, however, renowned Bureau Ekman remains steely cold and calculating. Our kindness should not be mistaken for weakness. Though, our prestige and modus operandi can not survive without some mystery. Familiarity mostly breeds discomfort and envious-driven emulation.
As for the mulishness of Bureau Ekman's private detectives / private investigators, we consider smart stubbornness a positive quality rather than the 'strong-arm manhood style' often associated with ruffians from various quarters. Most private detective / private investigator cases are 'Wars of Attrition', sometimes or often the defeated defeated and the victor lost.
Most secrets are heavily overvalued. The game today is to verify information, not to steal secrets. 'Seek and ye shall find.' The hare set running in 2019 has not quite been caught. The game's afoot. No amount of firepower, nor tide of gloop, is likely to be a satisfactory response on its own. In our combined (film and detective professionals) team's on-going investigation of this [culpable] mystery, the movie is a wonderful illustrative example of how the deliberate, collaborative pursuit of evidence can accomplish the previously unaccomplished.
This is an enthralling legal-procedural detective whodunnit narrative, as percolating evidence is slowly perused and unearthed from various human and signals intelligence sources. [Tempor-ized] with vague and apocryphal promises; Isolation as a source of creative investigative activity: VICTOR LUDORUM?"
