A cascade of water several storeys high, Tower became a project of monumental scale and was the third control system collaboration between Random International and 2M Automation.

This urban waterfall provided a splash of waterfall experience in Germany, with visitors able to stand under the full force of the water fall and seek shelter within it's walls intermittently.

My primary take-away is why should we recreate nature instead of preserving it in the first instance? Recent generations, at the behest of forces unseen have sought to centralize control and rebuild - thereby incrementally removing us from rich and established landscapes within which our ancestors bloomed.

Insight into the construction and mechanical build and installation of this sizeable interactive project.
