The BMW Museum
I am in Munich on a work related trip but this time around I’ve actually taken a few extra personal days before work starts so that I could try do as many things as I can here in Munich and visiting the BMW Museum is one of them. Last time I came to Munich the BMW Museum was closed for renovation which was very disappointing and I was really hoping this time around it would be open and luckily it was. The place is just incredible and I am glad I got to see it after the renovation because it just looks super futuristic. I got to see a ton of my favorite vintage BMW’s all in factory new condition and I also got to see the concept car Gina which looks better in person than it did in the videos online.
I am definitely going to come back to the museum one more time before I leave. To see some more pictures and videos I took click on continue reading below.

the spheres display is incredible. the way it works is very simple but their execution makes it look like something from the future. basically every sphere is hung by a nearly invisible string. the string goes up and down in sync with all the other strings.
the interactive timeline work i think by censors on the table and projectors over the table.
the animated walls was the most difficult one to figure out, until noww i am not sure if my guess is right. the animated walls is not a projection. i think its a thin LCD film placed behind the wall. LCD like the calculators where when its on its black and off its invisible. it must be an lcd film cuz the walls aren’t thick enough to fit a projector inside and there is no projecton on the outside. the fact all moving images ont he walls are in black and white helps the LCD theory.

I have been to the “BMW Zentrum” in Spartanburg, SC, USA. It was nice. They had about 40 vehicles to look at, and they showed how BMWs were made in the USA. Best of all, the admission fee was FREE!!
