Art Space Alexander Bürkle

Mind-bending installation is beyond belief...

James Davidson • 26 January, 2012

Wow. Strap on your moon boots, pull down your 25th century aviators and step into a mind-warping virtual future. The masterminds of many a temporary construction, exhibition and event space, Berlin’s Kubix were tasked with creating an overwhelming user experience to celebrate Freiburg-based electrical-engineering company Alexander Bürkle‘s 111th anniversary. The rest of the details (where, when, how) have been lost in German-to-English translation; but that doesn’t matter. Not one bit. Because this probably doesn’t even exist, it’s just a figment of your sci-fi addled imagination… isn’t it?

Installation: Zukunft 2011/Future 2011
