German Pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai: facts and fiction designs an exhibition to create an immersive experience

The architecture and exhibition of the German Pavilion were developed following the idea of CAMPUS GERMANY, the name under which Germany is presenting itself in Dubai. The pavilion is a forward-looking, optimistic place of knowledge, research and human interaction. It is full of sustainability-themed examples of innovation and ingenuity to inspire, fascinate and thrill visitors young and old.

Concept of the CAMPUS GERMANY

The Expo site is be divided into three districts, dedicated to the themes of Opportunity, Mobility and Sustainability – where the German Pavilion is located. The German Pavilion provides an entertaining, surprising, hands-on and digital showcase of German innovations and solutions in the field. Germany is the place where the energy revolution known as the “Energiewende” was born, a place where science, industry and large parts of civil society are actively committed to securing a sustainable future. That is the message CAMPUS GERMANY will set out to convey in Dubai.

The CAMPUS GERMANY concept behind the German Pavilion in Dubai also addresses an issue that is high on the host region’s agenda: education. Therefore, as they make their way through the German Pavilion, visitors come across a number of campus-related features: the “enrolment” process, a welcome event and a “curriculum” covering the topics of energy, cities of the future and biodiversity. Mirroring the real-life campus and student experience, the journey ends with an exhilarating ceremony in the Graduation Hall.

Highlights of the exhibition

The German Pavilion will be edutainment-based; a surprising, haptic, digital showcase of German innovations and solutions in the field of sustainability. The first highlight after visitors have “enrolled” will be a huge ball pit in the “Welcome Hall”. Each of the 100,000 balls will tell a story, present a statistic or spotlight a sustainability champion from Germany. Visitors will simply pick a ball and place it on one of the scanners to see a short presentation.

Interaction and participation will play a starring role in the German Pavilion. Many of the exhibits will need a person to operate them – often, more than one person. CAMPUS GERMANY will be a hands-on experience, where visitors can play, work together and succeed as a team, with the focus very much on the fun factor.

The individual exhibition spaces have been designed to create an impressive whole and an immersive experience. In the darkened Energy Lab, “energy cables” will pulsate with energy supply solutions for the future. In the Future City Lab, visitors will become part of an intricate urban landscape that completely surrounds them. In the Biodiversity Lab, they will experience the beauty and vulnerability of nature beneath a suspended installation of magnificent proportions. Each lab will create an immersive experience that will stay with visitors – not only in their minds but also, doubtless, on thousands of smartphones and then on social media.

CAMPUS GERMANY will be a place where people’s opinions count. Some exhibits will ask visitors for their own views, with questions such as, “Would you agree that we can only tackle climate change by working together?” or “Would you agree that sustainability is one of the major challenges to secure a better future?” In the grand finale in the Graduation Hall, everyone will sit down on one of the swinging seats to symbolise the whole world coming together. Here, at the end of the tour, they will all realise there is more that unites them than divides them. They will be given the task of making the seats swing in unison, the message being that even the smallest of movements (minimum action so to speak) can achieve great things – if we act together.

“Having the honour to present Germany at a World Expo is a great task. We research very extensively what a country has to contribute to the theme of the Expo and then translate these – often very complex – research results into simple stories, surprising interactions and engaging experiences. Visitors can learn something – and have fun doing it”, states Andreas Horbelt, creative director at facts and fiction.

Architecture

The architecture designed by LAVA (Laboratory for Visionary Architecture) for the German Pavilion also reflects the underlying CAMPUS idea. Rather than being a building in the traditional sense, it is a vertical ensemble of building volumes, surrounded by a connecting element, much like a park surrounds a CAMPUS, just vertically.

This profusion of structures represents Germany’s federal system and the diversity of its industry and research sectors. The cubes stacked one on top of the other combine with enclosed voids in an interplay that results in a fascinating alternation between interior and exterior spaces and many exciting and surprising perspectives. Between the cubes with the three labs visitors repeatedly find themselves in the galleries of the open atrium, where they can experience CAMPUS GERMANY in all its spectacular diversity.

The atrium is the real heart of the pavilion: a green, open area, offering many surprising perspectives and panoramic views. A place where lots of things happen at the same time – in the exhibition, on the stage and in the restaurant. On all levels, people are exploring the pavilion, chatting and enjoying the campus atmosphere. CAMPUS GERMANY is a transparent place – multi-faceted, diverse, varied and lively: a place for people. This is a concept that makes the building itself part of the exhibition, turning it into a tool with which to connect people and content – true to the Expo theme of “Connecting Minds, Creating the Future”.

Fridays4Future und Müllberge nach Abiturparty – Hauptsache Fun!… und morgen macht uns die Energiewende sowieso alle arm

Nürnberg startet eine Umwelt-Kampagne gegen die grassierende Wegwerf-Mentalität: Sie will die Einweggeschirr- und Plastikbecherlawinen unter Kontrolle bekommen. Dabei will die Stadt auch selbst als Vorbild agieren und ein Verbot für müll-intensives Einweggeschirr bei städtischen Veranstaltungen und Festen verhängen. Um die Bürger zum Mitmachen zu bewegen, werden in der Kampagne Motive aus der Kunst des berühmtesten […] http://dlvr.it/R5wVgV

YESTERDAY by: Simon Kuper “The history of the world is but the biography of great men,” wrote the historian Thomas Carlyle in 1841. This so-called Great Man Theory of History has long since been discredited. Most historians now believe that kings and presidents have relatively little impact on ordinary people’s lives. Demography, climate and technology matter much more. But the Great Man Theory of History lives on in journalism. Read the news these days and you’d think that Donald Trump and his entourage were the key forces shaping the future. Likewise, the coming French election is being reported worldwide on the presumption that the next president will change history. This focus on personalities instead of trends is fun but misleading. Just as the smartphone probably did more than Barack Obama to shape the past few years, so tech and not Trump should shape the next few. The debate about the future is currently monopolised by the unanswerable question of whether robots will take away human jobs. But so much else will happen. Imagine that Trump rules for eight years, as is entirely feasible. In that time, life will change. By 2024, virtual reality will be mainstream. Put on your VR glasses and you will be able to step (virtually) into your boss’s office in another country. Just as the internet changed the mating game, so will VR. You can meet your new date virtually in a Hawaiian beach bar or in outer space (though old-fashioned exchanges of fluids will still require physically leaving the house). New forms of entertainment will emerge: soon you will be able to stand (virtually) on FC Barcelona’s field watching Lionel Messi dribble towards you or see the late Laurence Olivier star in a new film.  Today we live between digital and physical worlds — think of a father toggling between his smartphone and child. VR will let us inhabit the physical and virtual worlds simultaneously. Younger people could fall victim to a new psychological disorder: “reality disassociation”. “They won’t know what’s reality any more and what isn’t,” says Liisa van Vliet, a biochemist at Cambridge university. VR will change life for the fastest-growing cohort of humans: the old. Life expectancy is already rising for almost every group in developed countries except the American white working class. South Korean women could soon become the first people with an average lifespan of 90 (presuming there is no North Korean missile strike). Personalised medicine should accelerate the upward trend. Sensors in your body will tell you when you need to take your medicine, and warn you before your heart attack happens. Rich people will pay to replace bad genes and failing body parts. Already, many countries cannot care for all their oldies. As China struggles with the rising cost of ageing, you could imagine it making exercise compulsory. But soon even nativist governments may have to let in migrant carers. The forecaster George Friedman predicts that, by 2030, rich countries will be offering bounties to lure immigrants. Once robots replace human drivers and cashiers, many western working-class people may move into care jobs. More likely, though, are robot carers (already being built in Japan). When grandma’s robot signals that she hasn’t boiled her kettle at the usual time, then a VR carer — a coming new profession — will step into her flat to check on her. One VR carer could “visit” 30 elderly people a day. Many people will find old age unbearably long and lonely. Dutch politicians are now arguing about a possible new law on “completed life”, which would let healthy oldies commit euthanasia. Just as the Dutch pioneered gay marriage and legal marijuana, this idea, too, could go global. Meanwhile, Germany and California are pioneering the shift to wind and solar energy. The Energiewende, as Germans call it, won’t stop climate change. Miami could be the first western city to depopulate, as hurricanes and the rising ocean make home insurance unaffordable. (Trump will have little impact on climate, given that other governments aren’t taking sufficient measures either.) The Energiewende may decimate Russia’s fossil-fuel economy. Still, Russia will remain a big power because military technology is shifting too: from human combatants to cheaper robot soldiers and cyber warfare. The Irish Easter Rising of 1916 centred on the capture of Dublin’s General Post Office, notes Dan Plesch of London University’s School of Oriental and African Studies. “We are gradually getting our heads around the fact that cyber is now the equivalent.” This could render most of the US’s human soldiers redundant. Trump will need to find other ways to make America great again. He has increased the frequency of drone strikes by 432 per cent from Obama’s presidency, and is developing an earlier American interest in the idea of limited nuclear strikes (which could “take out” thousands of people by way of warning). But Trump won’t create this future. He may imagine himself as the rider guiding the horse of history. In truth, he’s hanging on to the horse for dear life as it carries him in directions he never imagined.  simon.kuper@ft.com @KuperSimon

Things that aged well: every single big decision regarding Germany's energy supply Angela Merkel has ever made.

[fangirlshameblog]

Horrible. Only nuclear (from which they made a scarecrow) could make the situation better. And in the matter of the climate change, and in the matter of dependence from Russians (which is againworse than the climate change). While the Nordstream, nordstream two are working, the weight of the EU =0, and people of Eastern European countries are suffering, quasi colonized by Russia. And all those who rule in the EU countries now are not better than putin's clowns from the past: schroeder, fillon...

If you truly believe that, anon, try to imagine President Fillon signing the paper that allowed the European Commission to negotiate vaccine procurement so all 27 EU members, including the smallest and less wealthy, could have equal access to vaccines at affordable prices. Keep in mind that every rancid LR sarkozista was screaming a variation of: let them eat Hydroxychloroquine/the magic potion of le druide Raoult/why aren't you buying Spoutnik??? this time last year. Or imagine President Fillon convincing Merkel to back the Recovery Fund.

Plus, nuclear power is not some magic bullet that will stop climate change. It's irresponsible and moronic to destroy the infrastructure if you already have it, especially if you're replacing it with burning coal like Germany does, but you're also not going to solve the climate crisis by building it from scratch, no country is ever going to rely on 100% nuclear in its energy mix (relying on 100% ANYTHING is a shit idea), it's expensive and time consuming and well... there's no time for it.

The energy mix is not a religion. If we're going to make fun of Western European Greens for turning into a scientifically illiterate cult, we should probably be more careful to not fall in the other extreme with nuclear power. If you have it, keep it, invest in replacing old plants with more efficient, safer, cleaner new ones, invest in innovation (where EU funding could come in handy) and help build some small, modular plants for those who don't have it but want it. If you're building it, like Slovakia, build it faster. If you hate it, never had it and don't want it, you do you. Nobody's forcing Luxembourg to build reactors. Renewables are faster and getting cheaper every year. Replace fossil fuels with renewables (like Denmark, for example, they don't need nuclear) and leave the rest of us be. When the wind doesn't blow for a few weeks like this year, you're still going to buy cheap, carbon-free electricity from France and Sweden through the euro grid, shush, nobody has to know.

tldr: Not Everything Is About Russia. I think CEE countries often wallow in self-victimisation, sometimes just because and other times because it's a convenient fig leaf, an excuse to not do the hard work/reform/reduce corruption, etc. Nobody's forced Czechs or Hungarians to vote for two loud and proud Putin stooges, for example. Or are they not Eastern Europeans? Plus the distance between the woe is me rhetoric and what CEE governments actually do in regards to Russia is often ignored. Here was a fantastic opportunity for Eastern European governments to sanction those who laundered hundreds of billions of euros for Putin's oligarchs via Danske Bank, every CEE country got to vote:

and not a single one of them voted in favour. Something to keep in mind next time these governments whinge about the one country that did vote Yes.
