Lights of the city

Large projectors cast light on Bremen's historic facades and set them in a new light with colorful, glowing images. These "City Lights" were organized for the first time in 2020. In times of the coronavirus pandemic, it was an attempt to brighten up the gloomy atmosphere with light art during the dark season. Due to the enthusiastic response and great appeal for visitors to Bremen, the retail association City-Initiative is now making the illumination spectacle possible for the fourth time in a row - from 29 December 2023 to January 14th, 2024, daily from 4:30 to 9:30 p.m., under the motto "play of colors". This can once again be admired on selected buildings in Bremen's city center, including that of the Faculty of Music on Dechanatstraße. HfK students have developed various projection ideas individually or in small groups. The content ranges from abstract, programmed aesthetics to figurative experiments with analog animation techniques and 3D animations that change the shape of the façade.


The impulse for this arose during an introductory workshop in projection technology, organized by the "We dig it" project, and was further developed in an open workshop led by HfK lecturer Lorenz Potthast.
