Here’s some giant LEDs for your viewing pleasure! Also check out detailed project documentation!


BIX is a permanent light- and media installation for the Kunsthaus Graz in Austria by realities:united architects from Berlin.
A matrix of 930 fluorescent lamps is integrated into the eastern acrylic glass facade of the biomorphic building structure of the new Kunsthaus in Graz, Austria. Through the possibility to individually adjust the lamps’ brightness at an infinite variability with 20 frames/second images, films and animations can be displayed - the Kunsthaus’ skin is transformed into a giant low resolution computer display.

LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. These are fluorescent lamps. Two completely different things.
