Artists Ai Wei Wei and Olafur Eliasson have come together to collaborate on the project Moon. The Moon Project is an interactive platform that consists of an open online interface, which anyone with an internet connection can access and leave their mark on the moon. The project was first presented this past November at the Falling Walls Conference in Berlin. The Falling Walls Conference was inspired by the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and focuses on groundbreaking research and innovation by asking the question "Which walls will fall next?" Eliasson mentioned in his speech at the conference, the project is not just a celebration of how technology can break barriers between art and digital, time and place, but also can serve as a call to action. “We have facilitated for you a sphere on which you can make a mark. Not just to make a mark, but make a mark that matters to you. Make your wish, make your dream. Do something."
