Interesting article, these are some great lessons from the podcast, and I love how you incorporated gifs too. I've always felt it's so important to get feedback, the good and the bad, as in the end, it is an opportunity to grow and it's imperative to continue growing/not remain stagnant! I think one of my favorite traits is humility, having an attitude of "I can't always know everything, but I can always learn more and continue growing." Gonna have to check this podcast out!

Great article! I've been to a few museums that had some impressive combinations of art/tech. As a fan of Van Gogh, The Van Gogh Alive takeover at the Dali Museum a few years ago was impressive! Meow Wolf is another fun museum that fuses both. And although Superblue Miami was a bit small, it still had some fun displays. 

But Artechouse is probably one of my top favorites since it's so immersive! I've only been to Artechouse Miami out of their locations, but all of their installations there are so impressive. I think the combination of art and tech presents a great chance to add interactive qualities to a display, so I love when that combination works to benefit immersion too. I believe incorporating new technological exhibits into museums can help inspire appreciation and interest for the arts in newer generations as it keeps things exciting. 

I love a good TED Talk! Many organizations, and people in general, are downright afraid to change things up, but change is so important to growth! I love this line too, where you included: "Abandoning the past is one thing, but capitalizing on change is crucial." Great, inspirational piece

I like drone shows better; they aren't as wasteful as fireworks, and don't scare dogs (as much). 

I agree! I appreciate how they can be practically "silent fireworks," and love that they aren't as wasteful. They also just feel more exciting since drone shows are a newer aspect. They've been popping up everywhere! Have you witnessed any fun drone shows like this? @Paul Konikowski

Of course, my first concern here is about security. :) I am not worried that the ball could be weaponized, but what if the systems that collect the data are hacked? There's a lot of money on the line (pun intended.)  I would love to see this ball, and the associated data systems, presented to a hacking conference to see if the integrity of the systems can stand up the the worlds best hackers.

That is certainly a reasonable concern! I'd like to see it put to the test too @Paul Konikowski

if the Project has a goal of LEED certification, you should be familiar with the scorecard

Thank you for this valuable addition!! @Paul Konikowski 

Lulia, thank you for sharing and for pushing sustainability issues. As an ambassador of the SAVe organization in Mexico, I am very pleased that you use us as a reference. We can effectively help the industry have a more comprehensive sustainability strategy for companies in the sector AV.

@Juan Carlos Medina, CTS SAVe serves as a valuable reference and example for others to follow, and it's wonderful to highlight these efforts. Resources like these are vital to creating a more sustainable future!
