1946-1955 primary school in Yazikovo 1950-1958 secondary school in Ufa 1958-1960 works in a light-bulb-factory in Ufa

1960 - 1964 studies of Physics at the Physical-Technical Institute in Moscow (MFTI) .

1964 dispute with Prof. P. Kapica, Krylov leaves the MFTI.

1964 - 1965 Studies of Physics at the state university of Leningrad (St. Petersburg). Krylov meets the art historian Marie Pinot.

1965 Krylov returns to MFTI. 1966 Candidate for Physics at the MFTI, supervisor Prof. P. Kapica .

1966 Following short-term stays in Warsaw and Gdansk he arrives in East-Berlin, where he works temporarily as technical assistant at the Humbold University .

1967 Krylov emigrates near Erfurt to Western-Germany and further on to France, he reaches Paris on the 5.5. 1967. Krylov lives here in the flat of Marie Pinot.

1967-1969 Krylov is working on his habilitation. In 1968 he moves to his own flat in the district of Cartier Latin. He gets acquaintanced with the philosopher C. Fouché.

1969 Krylov files his habilitation at the Sorbonne. After defending his thesis he spends the summer with M. Pinot in Brittany where he works out a concept for experiments to prove the theses of his habilitation. In autumn he leaves for the USA, where he meets Gellmann and Weinberg to discuss the drafts of his experiments. Later on he visits the city of New York, as well as the Canadian cities Montreal and Toronto.

1969 Krylov meets with the artist C.I. Brom, who became an important friend of Krylov.

1970 - 1971 Krylov prepares an experiment, to be carried out in the European particle physics laboratory CERN (CH). He therefore travels several times to Geneva. In the winter term 1970/71 Krylov reads his first lecture at the University of Paris I (Sorbonne).

1971 Krylov moves from Paris to the little village Fenieres near Geneva. He directs the preparations for his experiment at the CERN. The experiment took place between September and December 1972. At the end of the year 1972 Marie Pinot ends her relationship with Krylov .

1973 Krylov is occupied with the analysis of the data of his CERN experiment. At the end of the year he leaves CERN and moves from Fenieres to Geneva, where he works on a draft for the publication of the results of the experiment. A short part of this work was published as a note in the scientific journal CERN Courier (XXX) while the larger part became what is now known his first manuscript, which he wrote in the years 1974 to 1977.

1974 Krylov makes the acquaintance of the philosopher Anna Schwabe. In autumn 1974 he spends several weeks in West-Berlin to be with his friend C.I.Brom who was seriously hurt in a car crash. For the same reason he spent time in Berlin in the following year, where he introduce himself at the department of physics at the Freie Universität Berlin.

1976 Viktor Krylov and Anna Schwabe travel to the USA (Houston, Bosten, New York). In Boston Krylov meets with the particle physicist S. Weinberg and discusses new experimental plans.

1977 several short stays in Basel, Zurich and Vienna. Krylov still lived in Geneva and finished here his first manuscript. 1978 Krylov moves to West-Berlin. Between summer 1978 and winter 1981/82 he reads each term two guest lectures at the Freie Universität Berlin.

1979 marriage with Anna Schwabe

1982 following the sudden death of his wife in early 1982, Krylov falls into a deep crisis and cancels his guest lecture at the Freie Universität Berlin.

1982-1989 Krylov writes his second manuscript, in which he develops the foundations of the 'Zyklische Umwandlungs Theorie' (ZUT/Cyclic Transformation theory CTT).

1983 Krylov resumes his guest lecture at the Freie Universität Berlin

1983 Krylov travels together with his friend C.I. Brom to Italy (Padova, Parma, Rome). During this journey he decided to start working on another manuscript which he completed in the years 1984 to 1993. ( 3. manuscript: chapt 4: apparatus to the fundamentals for physics; chapt 5: interactions; chapt 6: sequences;)

1984 Krylov accepts a chair for physics at the Freie Universität Berlin.

1990-1993 several stays in Heimburg, where C.I.Brom is living.

1993 first rumours about connections between Krylov and the KGB. Similar rumours came up in 1998, but these speculations could never be verified.

1993 after the rejection of his new experiments at the CERN, Krylov flies to the USA, where he spends the years 1995-1996 in privacy near Yakima.

1996 he returns to Germany where he lives in the house of his friend C.I.Brom in Heimburg. Krylov travels several times to Vienna and Leipzig. In Leipzig he visits his former assistent K. Enke, with whom he discussed new plans for experiments and in Vienna he met the philosopher C. Fouché, whom he knows from Paris.

1997 Krylov moves to Vienna. In several meetings with C. Fouché in the Café Weidinger he discusses his plans about an institution which deals with the relation between science and art. In autumn, his friend C. I. Brom dies. Krylov saves the paintings, installations and films of Brom and thereby lays the foundations of the art collection of what is to become the 'Institut für Wissenschaft and Forschung' (Institute of Science and Research/ IWF)

1998 Together with C. Fouche, Krylov founds the 'Institut für Wissenschaft and Forschung' (Institute of Science and Research/ IWF). The purpose of this institution is the realisation of Krylovs third manuscript and the organic progression of its ideas. Krylov and Fouché rent premises in the 7th district of Vienna. Together with his assistant K. Enke Krylov prepares for his first experiment to the Zyklische Umwandlungstheorie (ZUT), which he had developed in his second manuscript.

1999 V. Krylov disappears without a trace. The police search was unsuccessful. His manuscripts were found in his apartment, together with a lot of photographs and other personal material. The disappearance of Krylov has created a great deal of speculations and rumours, ranging from his abduction by the KGB to the scenario of first tests of the ZUT-experiment having gone out of control.
