Fakultät/Faculty, stop-motion animated video, silent, 4:25min, loop, 2010
Teufelsberg’s location was nothing but haphazard, it was raised over the incomplete Wehrtechnischen Fakultät (The Military Technical Academy) designed by Albert Speer and envisaged to be included in Hitler’s Hochschulstadt. Utilising original drawings, images and other historical documents, Ulrika Gomm has recreated the building in the form of a model. The film Fakultät is a dolly shot through a monumental, but empty, building shell. The size of the projection sucks in the observer but the processing of the film material, which adds an animated expression, breaks the suggestion effectively. (Extract from the text kreiskrets written by Diana Kaur, 2010).
