November 15, 2025, Berlin, Germany: People visit the art installation, Dark Matter: KOLLEKTION, created by German light and media artist Christopher Bauder at the Dark Matter Light and Media Art Museum in Berlin. Visitors explore a series of dark, former factory rooms transformed into immersive worlds of light, movement, and sound. The KOLLEKTION presents seven chapters of artworks, from small light compositions to large interactive installations with 3D sound. Each room offers a distinct atmosphere within a unified experience, inviting visitors to stay a few minutes to take in the full effect.

The experience combines visual display with the opportunity to skate on an ice rink integrated into the installation.

German soldiers from the Wachbataillon took part in the nighttime “Bollwerk Baerlin III” exercise at Jungfernheide U-Bahn station in Berlin on Wednesday, November 19, 2025. The large-scale drill trained troops to fight in confined underground spaces, clear subway cars, evacuate casualties, and respond to simulated saboteur attacks. The Bundeswehr says the exercise reflects Germany’s renewed focus on national and alliance defense amid rising security tensions in Europe following Russia’s war against Ukraine. The unit, best known for its ceremonial duties, is expanding its infantry capabilities to protect federal government infrastructure in a crisis.
