This wiki is a unique and open platform where we accumulate the common knowledge of staff and students alike, preserving it for future generations at the Bauhaus-Universität and beyond. This becomes more and more crucial since Bachelors and Masters have less time to pass on their knowledge to younger students and faculty staff is hired on a short term basis. Redundant class preparation of similar or identical content in reoccurring subjects like [[Processing]], [[Arduino]] and [[Pure Data]] can be avoided, freeing time for innovation and research. | This wiki is a unique and open platform where we accumulate the common knowledge of staff and students alike, preserving it for future generations at the Bauhaus-Universität and beyond.

This Mediawiki installation was set up by Michael Markert in 2008 and was intended as an easy and instant way to share and collaborate on the course content for the chair Gestaltung medialer Umgebungen. It replaced a phpcms installation which was running on a private domain not affiliated to the university. Until 2010 the chairs Elektroakustische Komposition und Klanggestaltung, Experimentelles Radio, Experimentelle Television, Gestaltung medialer Umgebungen, Interface Design, Medien-Ereignisse and Moden und öffentliche Erscheinungsbilder as well as the KEW Photography Lab had joined the wiki. Since the new setup in 2009-11-11 exactly 136,409 edits were made on the content.
