POSTERWALL (NED)
Project-ImageProject-ImageProject-Image
 
PosterWall is a poster for the 21st Century: a digitally automated poster feed by information streams from various Internet sources and governed by algorithms designed to produce 600 posters a day.

On the occasion of the opening of the new Graphic Design Museum in Breda (NL) the posterwall for the 21st century was launched, both online and as an installation in the museum itself. It was conceived by Lust .

In the museum 600 unique posters are automatically generated daily using content gathered from various internet sources. Online, one new poster is generated every five minutes. Constantly new and updated, the posters contain content covering a range of topics such as cultural events, news, weather, etc.

In the museum it’s placed at the end of the overview exhibition ‘100 Years of Graphic Design in the Netherlands’. It attempts to provide insight into the direction graphic design might go in the future while posing the question:

‘Do we still need graphic designers?’
