SMS Projector: House turns into text screen

Pressemitteilung von: Haase & Martin GbR

(openPR) - Last weekend Matthias Haase and Alexander Martin, founder of Haase & Martin GbR, presented their SMS event software called SMS Chatwall (www.chatwall.eu) due a traditional festival on a historical barnyard in Beiersdorf near Dresden. Next to local music groups and events for children the Chatwall became a highlight that night. Incoming text messages have been projected directly onto a dwelling house over the windows and on the roof - not using a common screen. Everyone enjoyed the party by texting own greetings onto the house. Every two minutes one text message was received by the Chatwall system.
The project is a sequence in a row of events with the Chatwall that was last year installed due the diploma exhibition of Academy of Fine Arts Dresden and due lots of other venues in Germany, UK, Austria, Swiss, Denmark and USA. As textually reported (www.textually.org/textually/archives/2005/08/009432.htm) Matthias Haase installed the chat software together with projector equipment on a table with a projection screen next to his oil paintings. For more information on the sms chat sculpture please visit www.artbang.de/public/user/benutzer/view.php?bid=79&sorti... and read more about who was texting messages during the art exhibition in summer 2005 in the article "SMS Projector - This Is Cold Art" on www.openpr.com/news/2569.html .
