ach, I had an awesomely lewd phrase in Dutch that I could add here, but I seem to have misplaced it.

but yay, blinkenlights! I was never in Berlin when they did it, but I would've loved to have seen Haus des Lehrers all lit up like that. I wonder if there were any people up at Weekend nightclub (on the 15th floor of the Haus des Reisens)? That would've been amazing.

I mean this is cute compared to what these guys are doing - and they're playing video on that building.

Possible inspiration? Watch this ... from the 1995 film.
