MANIFESTO
There's a moment in every show — the room is dark, the first bassline lands, and a wall starts breathing. Not a video file. Not a slideshow. The wall is listening.
Berlin Pulse is the system that does the listening. It takes whatever is in the room — a DJ set, a saxophone, a footstep on a sensor, a hand crossing a webcam — and turns it into light. Into moiré fields, oscilloscope ink, kinetic typography, projection-mapped geometry. Into a visual environment that belongs to the music playing in that room, in that minute, in that city.
It runs in any browser. It runs locally inside the venue, with the same interface, the same muscle memory, and the same blackout button in the same place at every show — from one room to a multi-output permanent install.
We built it because Berlin's cultural spaces — the squats, the cafés, the Späti back-rooms, the Kreuzberg lofts, the gallery openings, the Wedding warehouses — needed visual tooling that belonged to the room. Operator-ready. Venue-ready. Installation-ready. Live by the time the first set drops.
WHAT PULSE IS
Three layers. One identity.
PulseBox · 02
The hardware
The venue appliance — a compact local runtime that ships with Pulse as a venue appliance. Pre-installed, plug-and-play, joins your Wi-Fi or makes its own. The thing venues install.
See the box →wozuberlin · 03
The cultural layer
The Berlin-rooted editorial network of artists, venues, collectives, exhibitions, journalism. The thing that makes us credible and contextual.

What you actually get.
DJs · VJs
Visuals that listen. Bass triggers strobes; vocals warp typography; drops fire mapped projection scenes. MIDI Learn anything in seconds. 11 controller profiles auto-recognised — APC, nanoKONTROL, Launchpad, MIDImix.
Open Pulse →Venues · clubs
One PulseBox per room. HDMI, audio, power. Operators open pulsebox.local on their phone, the visuals
start. Cloud-managed media, multi-projector pinning,
two-tap emergency blackout. Same interface, same muscle memory across every room.
Cafés · day venues
Mood visuals that match your playlist — without a screen looking like screensaver software. PulseBox runs your branding by day, switches to ambient audio-reactive at night. Costs less than your espresso machine.
