Tower at the Munich Fairgrounds

Like a torch in the wind, that is what the tower should look like according to Professor Kluge, who has already realized many artistic projects with light as central theme.
Wind-sensors detect velocity and direction of wind. A processor in the tower's basement then calculates the specific brightness of the single units and transmits this information with speed of light via glass fibre to the dimming modules. These dimmers have been especially developed for this project by our engineers.
Controlled via the standard-protocol (DMX512) the neon tubes can be adjusted to any wind situation possible, without flickering and 60 changes of brightness per second. Just like a torch in the wind.
