We created a series of animated videos for AEG/Mercedes-Benz which play all over the square in front of the Stadium and new concert hall in East Berlin. Giant video screens on the buildings and on specially built towers, a fountain, new bars and restaurants, a bowling alley, cinema and more

make this a very popular destination with everyone. One of our videos played every couple of minutes from 6 AM till midnight, 7 days a week. Here is the Christmas Holidays video, incorporating footage of the LED screens in the square on which they can be seen, which ran all over the Holidays.

MUSICAL PERFORMANCES

We appeared in a run of fantastic events that DUCKiE produced in 2016. In a re-creation of the legendary Lady Malcolm’s Servants Balls, The historical highs and lows of the  pre-war London LGBT scene were re-enacted by an enthusiastic audience in the Bishopsgate Institute in London.

We also performed at the associated event: WITHOUT BORDERS… Archives, Libraries, Museums and Special Collections (ALMS) 2016, an International LGBTQ+ Conference hosted by the City of London through London Metropolitan Archives in partnership with Bishopsgate Institute and the University of Westminster.

We also hosted a special Late Night event at The BRITISH MUSEUM to celebrate LGBTQ* History Month, which included us leading the audience on a musical tour of the Museum’s exhibits.

We were invited to make a video work for the Berlin Leuchtet (Berlin Light Art) festival, from the 2nd till the 19th October 2014. Buildings in Berlin are lit up with video artworks and projections and the city is transformed for people to explore.The O2 Arena in East Berlin is covered by an array of LED panels, 116 metre wide by 12 metre tall.
