rawdata

2005.01

screen design for an interactive installation by berlin video artists visomat inc. for the SAP headquarters in berlin.

the installation deals with the building as a machine, collecting data from the building’s own facility management computer as well as all kinds of sensors (weather station, photo cells, surveillance cameras, traffic ...) and projecting the current statistics onto a number of screens on the outside, partly in the form of plain text tables (which is what i did) and partly converted to / accompanied by lots of video art (which is the work of visomat and friends, not me).

the whole thing is interactive – you can call 0800-RAWDATA and choose between various categories of data by pressing digits on your phone.

a project in cooperation with transmediale festival.
