The projection is inspired by the Houston skyline and is a striking testament to the city’s spirit of innovation, resilience, and diversity. Towering above the sprawling urban landscape, its blend of modern skyscrapers, historic buildings, and dynamic architecture reflects Houston’s role as a global hub for energy, medicine, and the arts.

The bright lights of the Houston skyline are more than a visual spectacle\u2014they’re an emblem of the aspiration of this Lone Star State and its creative spirit. They inspire viewers to dream big, capturing the city’s ethos of endless possibilities. For viewers, these lights provide a palette of inspiration, for residents, a beacon of home, and for visitors, an unforgettable impression of a city that never stops reaching for new heights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work is based on a series of creative code investigative sketches in movement and sound. If you are at all curious go check out the D side on SIM Waves. https:\/\/shermanfinch.com\/\/?portfolio=sound-interaction-motion<\/a>

A huge thank you to Ann Taylor, the selection team, and everyone at Downtown Houston+ for this incredible opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A big shout out to @Scott Justis from One Experiential for leading the Snow Glow production, Alex MaGee for creating the kiosk. On December 20th, I\u2019m looking forward to seeing Bright Lights come to life as it reflects across Houston\u2019s iconic waterways on a four-story tall water screen.
Stay tuned for updates, and thank you to everyone who continues to support my journey. Let\u2019s light up the season together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
