That is one interesting place. Is it still in operation?

Unfortunately not anymore "in operation". Btw, You already asked the same question ;-) I'll take the liberty of a "copy & paste" from > this posting:
QuoteQuote:
Olympus Perspective Playground was actually a marketing event for the company. Took place a few years ago in various European cities, whether outside Europe I don't know. You could borrow and test the latest Olympus camera models at the entrance, but you were also allowed to take pictures with your own (Pentax) equipment. There were all kinds of interesting and inspiring installations and performances. I was there twice, once in Cologne and once in Dortmund.

More info and few pics can be found here:

That second shot really has some complexity to it while yet seeming simple!
Seems to be a good shot for meditation and relaxation for a tired mind after a long day at work.
Very interesting capture you made!

Another cool shot. I'm not totally unfamiliar with this type of apparatus. We used to take our grandkids to an indoor play area that had similar things, but not near as elaborate. We had times when we had to assist them in escaping. Thanks for posting these interesting images.
