Berlin, , DE Germany

For a period of eighteen months, the eleven-storey glazed main facade of Potsdamer Platz 10 in Berlin will host one of the world’s largest media facades: SPOTS. The installation - commissioned by the HVB Immobilien AG and designed by realities:united - comprises a computer controlled light matrix of 1,800 fluorescent lamps transforming the facade into a communicative membrane displaying works by internationally renowned artists in changing exhibitions.

The first exhibition "City Gaze" is being curated by Andreas Broeckmann and will feature art projects by Carsten Nicolai, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Jim Campbell and John Dekron in collaboration with realities:united

On this facade will be displayed 55 billion unique and grammatically correct questions, --a new German version of the software "33 Questions per Minute" by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer. People will be able to input their own questions by typing them in at an outdoor kiosk.
