If you want to contribute to the majesty and beauty of the Winter Olympics, Vectorial Elevation Vancouver is the way to go. Vectorial Elevation is a crowdsourced light show that is way too epic for words.
But I'll try and describe it. The Vectorial Elevation Vancouver website has a virtual model of Vancouver on it. You can design "light sculptures" with up to 20 searchlights located around the English Bay. Every night the virtual submissions are uploaded onto a queue and displayed sequentially.
Public art is always an awesome idea. Vectorial Elevation Vancouver is a wonderful way to be a part of the Winter Olympics.
