This project was inspired by a trip to Berlin, primarily Mies von der Rohe's New National Gallery and Peter Eisenman's Holocaust Memorial. But the over all atmosphere of the city, especially in the East side, seemed to be one of hoplessness and a complete lack of enthusiasm to move forward.
I developed this idea initially as an installation for Alexanderplatz, one of the main hubs in the Eastern side of the city. The concept uses many cubes of varying sizes to create a see of vast large faces, or screens. Projected upon to these screens is a schedule of educational programs ranging from Philosophy to Biology to Art History to Law and Social Science. This schedule is then publicised, and if someone wants to go along, they simply turn up in time.
This idea of perpetual learning as a persons life goes on is one I think is very important and that needs to be addressed.
