Modern design and operating concept for the exhibition 2020
checkpointmedia revised and expanded the media technology of the exhibition and technical facilities, created and implemented
a modern design and operating concept for the operation of the exhibition.
Commissioned by Wiener Stadtwerke, checkpointmedia
designed and programmed seven interactive media terminals as part of a journey through the 150-year history of public transport
in Vienna.
As winner of the tender
by the funeral company Bestattung und Friedhöfe Wien, checkpointmedia, together with OMS as full service general contractor,
has been commissioned with the construction and design of the new museum.
checkpointmedia devises and
installs a spatial intervention for Wiener Stadtwerke’s large foyer that presents the company’s achievements and vision to
visitors.
checkpointmedia has developed and
installed a special media player for the individual display of information for the media wall and "time machine" in the visitor
centre of Austria's parliament.
checkpointmedia develops several items of
lounge furniture for the Wiener Stadtwerke entrance hall; these also function as exhibits and information carriers and together
form a corporate museum.
The media sculpture "Energiehaushalt"
(Energy Management) is a column, four metres high and half a metre wide, displaying the office building's daily energy production
and consumption processes. Entries are continuously supplied by the building's smart-metering system.
checkpointmedia has installed five multilingual "wide-stretched" monitors providing information for visitors at the
security checkpoint of the Parliament building. A variety of different texts can be selected and edited using a web interface.
Under the title of "Expedition voestalpine"
checkpointmedia developed a concept for a visitor centre on the premises of the Linz steelworks. The visitor centre was designed
in combination with the company tour to provide an all-inclusive experience.
A "media panel" provides information on the history of the area,
the flora and fauna found above and in the water and the development of the National Park renaturized river bank. A film loop
running on six monitors shows an animated feature on the development of the bank since 1773, images of the fauna found on
the flood plain and a brief history of the power station that was once planned in Hainburg.
The visitors' centre at
the Austrian Parliament, created by architects Geiswinkler & Geiswinkler, represents an opening up to the outside world
and provides a gathering point for tourists and interested citizens.
In the entrance
hall an automatic multimedia/mechanical wall installation entertains the visitors while they wait. A mobile multimedia/mechanical
trade fair terminal provides additional information on IT-SC's business activities. Synchronization with the website ensures
that the information is always up-to-date.
checkpointmedia creates the "kraft.raum"
(power.space) in which video and sound impressions on eight different themes related to Illwerke are presented.
A second "world", the "Waiters' City",
in Hangar-7's Mayday Bar in Salzburg: in addition to completely new decor and a set of interacting figures - the waiters/waitresses
- messenger tools delight the visitors with an intuitive graphical interface enabling direct communication across the bar.
The multimedia installations produced by checkpointmedia
for the Red Bull "high-tech entertainment area", reflect the fact that the building has multiple uses.
The Salzburg Festival and Red Bull present a spectacular evening of culture 2003
On 22 February 2003 Red Bull opened its amazing Hangar-7 at Salzburg Airport. checkpointmedia was responsible for the planning
and installation of the entire audio-visual equipment, the multimedia attractions and the website.
