> A project for public space, with posters put up in Karlsruhe, Cologne and elsewhere in autumn and winter 2015/16

> Commissioned by ZKM | Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe on the occasion of the exhibition Global Control and Censorship, October 4, 2015 – May 1, 2016. The Cologne part of the project consists of 200 advertising columns

If you click the link "Advertising Columns" you can see those. I guess I am still confused as to what calling the number does (that we can actually see) and how it relates to the art.

Pity that they don't have a kind of webcam so that we can see how many calls happened up to now.

I'll be going to ZKM next week. From the photo ( http://hop3.de/mobiltelefon_en.html ) it seems like the phone displays the number of missed calls. I'll let you know what it says.

As anotheryou said, the phone is sadly limited to displaying double-digit numbers of missed calls. It did ring every couple of minutes though while we were there. We were playing with the idea of calling the people back (like any phone it shows the caller's number unless the caller chooses to prevent that) but in the end we didn't.

It sadly maxed out at 99 calls, it's an old brick-style phone.
