Opening Mobiglobe

Autostadt, the themepark and communications platform of Volkswagen in Wolfsburg, opened a new installation “Mobiglobe”. The project has been conceived and produced by Hosoya Schaefer Architects in collaboration with blm film production, Hamburg, Shiftcontrol Studios, Copenhagen, Buro Destruct, Berne and Autostadt. The installation shows mobility as the systemic interplay between transportation, city structure, resource flows and lifestyle. Sustainable mobility needs to be based not only on improved cars running on renewable energy or new solutions for public transport, but also on urban planning strategies, resource management and changes in personal lifestyle. Only when combining measures in all areas, mobility can be optimized. In the film, presented on six over-scaled screens arranged like the windows of a car, four visionaries are presenting their projects or concepts; interactive stations add detail and explain the defining parameters of each project.
