The BERLINER ZEITUNG newspaper stands for a diversity of voices, opinions and perspectives. To celebrate the 34th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, BERLINER ZEITUNG has launched a campaign to raise awareness for their OPEN SOURCE platform, which can be used by anyone to upload interesting texts.
Berlin-based designer RABAN RUDDIGKEIT created the motifs for it with the aid of AI. They depict several peaceful revolutionaries of the past century with alarmed facial expressions: Mahatma Gandhi, Václav Havel, Bärbel Bohley, Martin Luther King, Jitzchak Rabin and Lech Wałęsa.
It kicked off with a cover for the weekend edition of BERLINER ZEITUNG on 4 and 5 November, 2023, followed by three further double pages in the journal. Page three informed readers about the content of the campaign and how OPEN SOURCE works.
“Whatever happened to the spirit of the peaceful revolution which led to the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November, 1989, and which had previously carried the protests and changes in Eastern Europe? How might the civil rights and peace activists who always advocated for nonviolent civil disobedience look upon our day and age?”
