Danmarks Radio, the Danish Broadcasting Corporation, has
recently inaugurated its new Concert Hall
designed by the French architect Jean Nouvel in
Ørestaden near Copenhagen.
The Danmarks Radio Concert Hall welcomes operas,
classical, jazz, pop and rock venues.
Informationsteknik Scandinavia, the technical and main
creative supplier for the project,
selected Medialon to be the unique AV control system for
the exterior and indoor illuminations.
The building’s 14,000 square meter exterior and indoor
façades are lightened up by impressive lighting and
artistic projections.
Two Medialon Manager V5 PRO licenses control, trough
Kissbox DMX network, a total of twenty four Martin
Exterior 1200 gobos-lights as well as twelve Panasonic
Image video projectors, used to project animated images
and lighting effects onto the architecture with a
variety of customized textures, colors and moving
effects.
Being user friendly, Medialon Manager software allows
easy control and changes of the video content displayed
on the exterior façade and match it with the music being
performed inside via several Dataton Watchout PCs.
Lights are also synchronized by Medialon when video
content changes. Designers, artists and technicians are
then able to create something much more sophisticated
and exciting than with paint, static lighting or
banners.
One Medialon Scheduler has also been integrated and is
used as the main user interface so the Danmarks Radio
can administrate and control what should be displayed
inside and outside the concert hall.
Medialon also interfaces the regular house lighting
control system through Kissbox I/O.
“I’m convinced that the façade’s art projection will
draw the attention of citizens and tourists alike, and
will act as an appetizer for activities within the
Concert Hall,” says Niels Bull Klarskov, Division
Manager at Informationsteknik.
"Our project together with Atelier Jean Nouvel and the
Danmarks Radio is a break through within indoor and
outdoor Architectural Lightning in the Nordic Area. From
our knowledge it is the first time that projector
technology from Martin and Panasonic is used in this
magnitude to create images and expressions on a building
- It is a truly not a “prêt à porter” project”,
concludes Håkan Hansson, Informationsteknik CEO.
