Virtuelle Mauer / ReConstructing the Wall  

 

T+T (Tamiko Thiel & Teresa Reuter) 2008: The virtual reality artwork "Virtuelle Mauer / ReConstructing the Wall" investigates the impact of the Berlin Wall, which divided West and East Berlin during the Cold War from 1961 to 1989. A digital reconstruction of a segment of the dismantled Berlin Wall and its surrounding neighborhoods creates a place of remembrance that users can explore in order to experience and reflect on this historical time.

The interactive 3D installation is set primarily in the mid-1980s, with some travel back to the 1960s or into the present time.
