Live Mobile Broadcasting
Artist: Christoph Faulhaber
Location: Berlin - Wall Terminal
Fight Club: A Chorus
Artists: post theater [new york / berlin / tokyo Hiroko Tanahashi, Max Schumacher and Yoann Trellu
Location: Berlin - Collegium Hungaricum Berlin (CHB)
Inside and outside / secret and public / art and non-art are coming together: Employees in the Staatsoper’s Magazin are becoming ‘pixel performers’ that can be observed on the public facade. Guerilla promotion or a networked live-stream performance?
Office Cleaning
Artist: Nika Radic
Location: Berlin - Collegium Hungaricum Berlin (CHB)
Analogous to baroque trompe-l’oeil murals, the projection allows us to look into an illusory room behind the outer facade: a fictional window that draws the attention to hidden, but essential, activities that mostly occur out of public perception. A peephole is opening in the city night.
AREyeM
Artists: N-Solab - Jan-Peter E.R. Sonntag, Thomas Plöntzke
Location: Berlin - Collegium Hungaricum Berlin (CHB)
The building is dreaming in phases about the past day of it’s inner and external experiences: The media facade, the twitching eye of the Collegium Hungarium, is simulating the building’s REM phase, and projects this in ever changing combinations into the city. In reference to the abstract experiments by László Moholy-Nagy.
Paradise Panorama
Artist: Katrin Schoof
Location: Berlin - Collegium Hungaricum Berlin (CHB)
Streetmedia
Artists: id22 / experimentcity: Rachel Lee, Stephan Kodura, Dr. Michael LaFond
Location: Berlin - Collegium Hungaricum Berlin (CHB)
Projected graffiti messages transform aesthetic architecture into an ideological statement: A collective, participatory experiment that opens an urban space for dialogue. Being a medium for communication, the media facade interprets current debates about citywide issues.

Ambientador
Artist: Fuss! - Timo Daum, Raul Marco, Guillermo Lopez
Location: Berlin - Wall Terminal
AMBIENTADOR, is a participatory sampling machine that computes, in real-time, associative chains out of sound and images for the public space: The community can step into a dialog with the audiovisual performance through a web interface, and can influence the content through their own submissions.
Nightscreen – Gasometer
Location
The Nightscreen-Gasometer is located in the south of Berlin. With an expanse of 660m² it is Europe’s biggest LED media facade. The LED net is attached to two top rings of the steel frame in an altitude of 80m, visible far beyond the Schöneberg district at nighttime. The orientation of the screen, operated by Megaposter, mainly is directed towards the city motorway interchange connected to the new regional and intercity railway station Berlin Südkreuz of the Berlin Circle Line (Ringbahn).
The listed Gasometer building is located in the Südkreuz area of the development programme “Urban Redevelopment Project West”, financed by the Federal and State governments. The steel construction can be seen from far away and is the landmark and striking symbol of the Schöneberg district. It is located in the former industrial estate of the Gasag among various railway tracks in the Rote Insel (Red Island) neighbourhood. The plan is to transform the Gasag-estate into a “European Energy Forum” with shops and office buildings, hotels, restaurants, a private university and a park.
