How cool would it be if you could look out your window on a beautiful evening and see a giant LED media wall displaying the most popular concerts, shows and events going on that night? Better yet, what if the entire, tens-of-thousand square foot wall was powered only by the sun? Now that’s tuned-in technology! And that’s exactly what residents of Taipei, Taiwan will get if a design proposal for the new Taipei Pop Music Center is accepted. The design was submitted as part of an international architecture competition funded by the Chinese government.
The media wall will be controlled from a central computer that changes the display to suit the night’s event. Entertainment, movie trailers, music videos, news, weather and other events could be projected as well. Conceptual images so far look like an Andy Warhol silkscreen cast onto a wall half the size of a football field. Or like a 30,000-square foot digital cocktail with a twist of solar. More realistically, the wall would stand as the largest beacon to date of a growing symbiosis between renewable energy, digital media and cutting-edge architecture.Image: Photo Credit: Green Cleaning Ideas
