The utopia “New Babylon” by artist Constant Nieuwenhuys is a newly conceived, radical urban development from the 20th century that no longer defines living spaces by their boundaries, but by their use and makes them visible by means of individual coloring. studio ASYNCHROME experiments with this utopia, makes Constant’s city plans tangible and lets Eggenberger Allee shine alternately in red, green and blue. By changing the light spaces, visitors are encouraged to spontaneously enter into an exchange with their changing surroundings and adapt their emotional and sensory world to this new atmospheric space.

“Sound paths” by Winfried Ritsch

“Sound paths” composed by Winfried Ritsch accompany visitors on their way through the light installation “Constant’s Zones”. Micro-compositions, so-called “SoundLives”, allow visitors to look and listen behind the facades of the Eggenberg district: With the dripping of the tap, with scraps of words and music, with footsteps or the whirring of an electrical appliance.
