Additional shows included mapping displays "There was an underground rustling that sounded like a deafening sigh" on buildings, no. 3 and 5 at ul. 1 Maja, mapping installations "We are all nature's spirits" at the Wojanowska Gate, architectural illuminations on the Town Hall, tenement buildings at the Town Hall Square and St. Ann's Chapel along the Downtown Main Street.
