This is a view of the newer convention centre where the TED talks were held. You can see the TED symbol at the far right of the image and in the top left corner the interactive light sculpture. I have heard that everything is going well with this location and we may be holding the TED talks for a few years.

This year the TED talks are held at the New Convention Centre here in Vancouver. This mesh sculpture is suspended between the convention centre and another building. At dusk they turn on the wireless connection and light display. With your wireless phone tablet etc. you connect to the system and use your touch screen to interact with the program changing patterns on the sculpture. It is not possible to show the patterns with the photography as the exposure is several seconds. It still turns out great thought with the colour patterns. The building in the background is the Hotel portion of the Canada Place Convention Centre.
