The acoustic room, developed by the urban construction company J. Brinkmann, is a unique, high -sounded room without screw connections, which offers visitors the opportunity to listen to the sounds of the underwater world. This innovative construction shows the close cooperation between the construction company and the Gasometer Oberhausen, which was also recognized on social media.

A particularly impressive picture is "Net Loss" by Audun Rikardsen, which documents the devastating consequences of the human use of the oceans.

In addition to the visual presentation, the exhibition also relies on the latest technologies to record changes in the oceans. An interactive globe called "Ocean Twin" lets visitors visualize current findings about the oceans. This innovative approach is part of a collaboration with the German Sea Museum, which is committed to marine protection and research.
