AIRAIL
The
Airail project comprised an interactive environment and chill-out lounge
exploring the theme of networked transport by means of light effects,
video and sound. The "mobile" multimedia world was presented
at the Airail Terminal at the Airport Frankfurt from 6/1-12/1/2000 as
EXPO 2000 satellite project.
