This is the one piece of this whole deal I've never really understood. In
fact, I'm still quite opposed. This is just light pollution and another
surface being used for annoying advertising, if you ask me. While it might
work in Times Square in New York, this doesn't feel like a Minneapolis
thing to me.
To me adding a bunch of TVs to the outside an already bland building is a
guarantee that the overall experience will just simply be all the more
frenetic and disjointed. Personally I'd much rather see an insistence on
more extensive greenery and flowing water (both of which feature heavily
in buildings like Gaviidae and IDS-- although neither of these is as nice
as the shopping center in St. Paul (name?) that has the little park on top
and lots of flowing water).
