The Voxel Cloud could easily become the single most impressive art installation in Downtown San Jose. The roof of The Pierce (an apartment building currently under construction in SoFA) will have thousand of LED lights to create a virtual cloud of dynamically changing lights. This is part of the Illuminating Downtown project which will also illuminate two overpasses Downtown, where Highway 87 passes over Santa Clara and San Fernando.
Have a look at the full two minute video below to get an idea of what it will look like. I can't wait to see this in action!

It's cool, but hasn't the one planned for under 87 been talked about for years? It's still all dark and creepy with homeless people on either end and hanging out up inside. Lame.
ReplyDeleteThey waited too long and now. Illinois cities have them. It's a bummer! San Jose needs to have something that cities don't have like a light tower with observation on top of the structure.
