Rumour — Temporary Exhibition at Museum of Communication Berne

The temporary exhibition at the Museum of Communication in Berne was devoted to rumours of all kinds that are spread through various channels and media. Some of the rumours were started by the visitors themselves. iart contributed two installations: a ‘Whispering Wood’ in which 74 thematically ordered rumours told in a whisper were heard outside the wood, creating a mysterious atmosphere that lured visitors inside, and a Pepper’s Ghost installation with a small ‘rumours agent’, who was sitting in his ‘doll’s house agency’ at a real miniature table, drawing attention to himself. He addressed talks to visitors directly, called them over to him, engaged them in conversation and tried to worm rumours out of them. Read More

Neither are the digital media pillars and the static signage in the Mall. They are new products especially developed by iart interactive for the new building’s exterior and interior. They are intended not just to perform their primary function but also to turn shopping into a pleasant experience. Nowadays, people expect shops to be more than places where they merely make their purchases: they want to feel good, to have exciting experiences and to be given direction.
