Mobile Deep Space Highlights the Opening of a New Exhibition in Erlangen

(Linz, May 5, 2017) A mobile version of Ars Electronica’s Deep Space made a guest appearance at the opening of a special exhibition entitled “The Third Dimension” at Siemens MedMuseum in the Bavarian city of Erlangen. The program at the premiere included extraordinary insights inside the human body presented by Dr. Franz Fellner, head of the Radiology Department at Kepler University Clinic in Linz. Rounding out the festivities was a best-of show featuring the amazing content screened regularly at Deep Space.

Cinematic Rendering

Back in the 18th century, realistic wax models had to be crafted for anatomy students to picture the interior of the human body. These days, it’s done digitally by procedures such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT). And now, Cinematic Rendering, a computer program developed by Siemens Healthineers, takes these depictions to the next level. Methods developed in the film industry make possible highly realistic glimpses into the interior of the human body—even in 3-D. The place to go to experience the amazing pictures Cinematic Rendering provides is the Ars Electronica Center, where these breathtaking visuals are on the program at Deep Space 8K.

Deep Space Mobile

A mobile version of Deep Space now makes it possible to behold the lineup of content that’s usually reserved for visitors to Deep Space 8K at the Ars Electronica Center in Linz, Austria. An 8×5-meter wall projection system screens ultra-high-resolution images, impressive films in 4K, and 3-D applications to thereby astound audiences attending exhibitions anywhere in the world.
