After conducting this interview, I downloaded the app and watched if it delivered on the promises. Somewhere in the Westzeedijk is an atomic bunker. Must See offers a video of the bunker, short informative texts and quite a few interior images.

Official launch of MUST SEE 

Various media reported in November about our launch in Rotterdam. For example, for two weeks we had illuminated various icons of the city with red breathing light, but we hadn't told anyone that we were.

There were many discussions on social media about where this red running 'fire' came from and who was behind it. During the campaign, more than 100 people (including the councilor) knew about it, but none leaked until the launch.
