6th til 17th November 2017

After two intensive weeks, COP23 came to an end on Friday. The World Climate Conference actually took place in Germany, but was under the presidency of the Fiji islands. Germany supported the South Sea republic as technical organiser. The aim of the conference was to elaborate on the details of the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, so it could be agreed at the next World Climate Conference in 2018. The Federal Ministry for Business and Energy used this opportunity to promote the energy revolution as a solution for successful, worldwide climate protection in the German pavilion.

Acting for the Federal Ministry for Business and Energy, 235 MEDIA designed and created the “Smart Wall” – an interactive wall, which aimed to make the German energy revolution easier to understand, particularly for international guests. In the energy landscape portrayed, your can switch energy consumers on and off, for example, and experiment with the interaction of sun, wind and co. in electricty production.

October 2016

The LWL Industriemuseum (Westphalian State Museum of Industrial Heritage and Culture) is Germany’s oldest and largest industrial museum. Covering the Ruhr area and Münster region to Gernheim an der Weser, visitors can discover the timeline of the German industrial era in eight central locations.

Since October 2016, TextilWerk Bocholt, one of the eight locations, presents the history of textile manufacturers in Westphalia across two floors of the permanent textile history exhibition.

235 MEDIA has developed an interactive multi-touch table with tangibles for the exhibition. With the help of the multi-touch table’s object recognition, interactions can be brought to life in a fun way. This allows links to be made between real objects, called “tangibles”, and digital information. 235 MEDIA tangible tables are now available with customisable tangibles, multi-touch monitors and software.

REMOTEWORDS writes on the rooftop of 235 MEDIA in collaboration with Marcel Odenbach

We warmly invite you!
Opening on Friday, 8th July 2016, 4pm to 9pm
Am Kölner Brett 1, 50825 Cologne
Introduction by Claudia Dichter at 6pm
Food and drinks provided.

REMOTEWORDS.32 consists of the now 32nd stage of the long-term art project ‘REMOTEWORDS’ by Achim Mohné and Uta Kopp. REMOTEWORDS writes short messages in large letters on rooftops in order to distribute information via navigation and satellite systems such as Google Earth, which are “hacked” and used for artistic purposes. Unique messages are constantly developed for various REMOTEWORDS locations, such as the University of Art in Berlin, the Kumu Art Museum in Tallinn and the H3K House of Electronic Arts in Basel.

The words on the rooftop of 235 MEDIA in Cologne were selected by the Cologne artist, Marcel Odenbach, and are borrowed from a poem by Ingeborg Bachmann written in 1952. For the artists, the wording represents a relativisation of the media images and calls for the constant questioning of supposed ‘photographic authenticity’.

On the occasion of the rooftop’s opening on 8th July 2016, a radio-controlled CCTV drone by the friendly film production company, TIMESCOPE films, will fly over the roof of 235 MEDIA, transmitting the aerial images and revealing the message.

In May 2016, the new exhibition area “Root Cave” was opened in the treetop path in Hainich national park. As a mini-format person, the visitor strolls through the cave-like display, meeting not only creatures of the darkness, but also finding out how the giant trees take on water and other nutrients for growth from the soil, how the “underground world” lives and works, and also which of its important inhabitants are responsible for waste disposal, for example. The elaborately designed display is a varied mixture of interactive elements and models you can hold, as well as instructive explanations. Find out more on the Projectsite >>

CLIENT: Stadtverwaltung Düsseldorf
February 2016

On 22 February, the six new underground stations on the Wehrhahn line were opened in Düsseldorf. This extraordinary project was completed after a 15-year collaboration between architects, artists, engineers and the municipal authority.

The Benrather Straße station was designed by the installation artist Thomas Stricker under the project name “Heaven above, heaven below” (German: Himmel oben, Himmel unten). The entire intermediate level, which is around 70 x 15 m, replicates the inside of a spaceship. Six large video screens were built into the metal walls, showing planets of our solar system and stars in the Milky Way. Together, the six animations form a complete film which is displayed on the six screens in such a way as to give the impression of travelling through space; thus creating the illusion that the entire station is flying through space

To reduce energy consumption and save CO2 – that is the simple idea behind our Green Media initiative. We are working to develop energy-saving potential for our customers and to exploit it to the full. Through the intelligent combination of the latest IT technology and our in-house development of products under the label 235 MEDIA ®evolution, we are constantly optimising the performance and energy efficiency of our IT and media applications.

Our IT Development and Consulting departments aim to identify redundant functions in the design phase of proposed applications and thus rule them out in the realisation. Just by focusing on the functions actually needed, we achieve a reduction in complexity, which has a positive effect on material and energy inputs: miniaturisation of form, stabilisation and longevity of function, reduction of energy consumption and CO2 emissions.

For several years, we have systematically worked with increasingly powerful yet more economical embedded systems. Through our in-house developments such as KLICK-KLACK, the automatic on-off control, or the LOOPO media player based on single board computers, we have consistently developed modular extensions. Aside from the portfolios of major manufacturers, this allows the design of diverse applications to be stabler, more cost-effective, and more energy efficient.
