O2 Arena, Berlin The O2 World Arena is located on 50 acres along the Spree River near the Berlin Wall East Side Gallery in the heart of Berlin, Germany. The arena seats approximately 17,000 people. Grand opening ceremonies were Sept. 10, 2008. The first event, a Metallica album release party, was Sept. 12, 2008. - The south end of the arena features a curved glass facade that overlooks a plaza area. The plaza area leads to a remnant of the Berlin wall and the Spree River approximately 225 yards (210 meters) away. via: www. “Wall of Africa” – Expo 2008, Zaragoza “Water and sustainability” is the motto of this year’s international world exhibition held from 14 June to 14 September in Zaragoza, Northern Spain. In 140 pavilions, approximately 100 nations are presenting solutions for the responsible use of the precious resource. Ledon’s contribution is the visionary illuminated fa?ade “Wall of Africa”, an impressive example of the variable use of light-emitting diodes. Light as a medium of communication via: , atelier-brueckner This project has been shown at the Media Facades Exhbition Berlin 2008 and was published in the Exhibition Companion Stadion Center, Vienna The main objective was to create an inviting and attractive fa?ade which at the same could be used for commercial messages. Currently the Creative LED Media fa?ade is used for animations, advertisement, logo’s and artistic color effects. The orignal idea of the architect was to mount LED pixels on every cross section of a flexible steel net (part of the building is covered by such a net). Philips Vidiwall evaluated this concept and proposed a solution based on laser cut steel panels with 85% transparancy. The pattern in the steel panels is diamond shaped, based on the diamond shapes of the steel net. On every cross section of the diamond pattern a full color LED pixel is mounted. This solution gives optimal results on creating the shape, picture quality and viewing angle of the LED display. The curved transparent LED display is almost invisible during the day due to its transparency and has full visibility during the night. via: www.lighting. This project has been shown at the Media Facades Exhbition Berlin 2008 and was published in the Exhibition Companion Aleph Aleph is an experimental public display, that is using the spaces, people and objects it faces as a palette to display messages from hidden viewpoints. When looking at a small mirror, it reflects a fraction of the space around us, when looking at a mirror fa?ade, it reflects most things around us, containing segments that are dark or bright, red or green. But if we build a matrix of small mirrors, which can adjust their tilt according to the site they are facing, we can create a display that uses the ever changing flux of the place to show images from certain points in space. It will not be comprehendible from all viewpoints, just from specific ones, asking visitors to explore the space, or providing surprising flashes in a public setup that can stay around the edge of comprehension. We can for example limit this point to the height of a child, so whenever she or he looks at the mirror, drawings emerge from the reflections of the clouds, drawings that appear only for them, that adults will not be able to see. via: www.

This Project is some years old; even older than Blinken Lights and also very influential. By posting it now, we are fixing a big hole in our collection The BBL, an ING bank decided to organize a major event around their headquarters in Brussels, Belgium to celebrate the new Millennium. The bank’s goals were to valorize its unique architecture and clearly identify the bank to the building. The extraordinary building designed by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill was an absolute inspiration to the Magic Monkey design team.
The Magic Monkey turnkey solution (original concept, design, installation & management) was to convert the entire 2000 m2 fa?ade of the building into a giant video display transparent to the occupants of the building but highly visible to the thousands of people driving by everyday. The project was inaugurated on December 8th 1999. Everyone was invited to participate and create their own images and animations by downloading a free animation interface from the burgeoning web (remember dial-in connections!). As soon as a new animation was uploaded via the website created for the project, participants would receive an email thanking them for their participation and telling them when their animation would play on the building. Entire families could then come see their animations on the building or watch from the web cam. The Marnix Monumental Interactive Matrix project was a huge success, lots of participations and a big impact on people’s imagination. The Bank was delighted and so was everyone else. As a little bonus, a jury of artists (Yvaral, Yann Kersalé, Robert Palmer and Franco Dragone) was invited to award 4 equal prizes of 2000 Euros to their favorite animations for the 1st edition and 4 equal prizes of 2001 Euros for the second edition. via: www.

Performance for a matrix of 64 gas balloons, lights, and sound A room is filled with deep, evolving noises from a four-channel sound system. An eight-by-eight array of white, self-illuminated spheres floats in space like the atoms of a complex molecule.
The height of the helium balloons is adjusted with a computer-controlled cable, whilst the internal illumination is accomplished using dimmable super-bright LEDs, creating a pixel in a warped 8×8 spatial matrix. The sonic events, the patterns of light, and the movement of the balloons are manipulated in real time as a 45-60 minute-long performance. balloon motion control: Christopher Bauder Aarhus by Light
Concert Hall Aarhus is the setting for an interactive piece that invites the citizens of the city to be part of a shared experience. In contrast to billboards, Aarhus by Light is not driven by commercial interests. Rather it is an alternative staging of the encounter between the citizens of Aarhus and a cultural landmark. It is a blend of architecture, ornament, and interactive entertainment. People experience the facade in a multitude of situations. They may be headed for the Concert Hall or passing by on their way to shopping. Some may cast a quick glance and hurry on, while others will be lured to explore the interactive potentials of the facade.
It has been a challenge to come up with a design that functions with all of these situations in mind. However, we carry out the Aarhus by Light experiment precisely to gain insights into the workings of media facades. The interactive facade consists of 180 m2 LED displays. The displays are not in the shape of a giant rectangular TV, rather they form an organic shape that becomes part of the architecture. |
