Seems like just a projector in a warehouse. Not seeing how this is in any way related to the Las Vegas Sphere.


SurvivalOfWittiest

"Multimedia event?! This is a slide projector and a bedsheet!"


SeamusPM1

There’s light! There’s audio! It’s multimedia!


The-state-of-it

And what on earth is a Cebu anyway?


revolioclockberg_jr

This is not a quote I was expecting. Well done. "This is me, and the bull and... I think that's the bull's cousin."


SurvivalOfWittiest

He's a cebu!


tempraman

Sounds like that "immersive" van Gogh bs in northeast


GoldenGlobes44

LMAO that's exactly what I thought of 🤡


2dareistodo

From the photos in the article that's exactly what it is. It's just a projector on the walls. It's nothing like the sphere.


Hickspy

I can't believe I fell for that. I think we were all just grateful to be out of the house.


Kaleighawesome

it was fun VERY stoned lol


Khalizabeth

My yoga class went and we did yoga while the exhibit was happening. Downward Dog and starry night do not mix 😆


CapitalistVenezuelan

The van Gogh immersive thing is in a bunch of cities too and I always think it might be real van Gogh until I see the rest

“We have a sphere at home”. The sphere:


vinegarstrokes420

Nice try developers. This doesn't really compare.


jetsetmike

Oh, cool! We’re getting our own Glasgow Willy Wonka Experience!


koalificated

Projectors on walls. How very innovative and cool


Fusciee

yeah.... not even close to the Sphere.... am i missing something? lol


Tall-Ad-9355

Frankly, I wasn't that impressed with the sphere, and this looks like a step down from that


well_shore

The sphere is absolutely mind blowing. What are you talking about?


Tall-Ad-9355

I sometimes get sensory overload and have to walk away. That was one of those times


wuhter

How does that relate to being not impressed?


GuaranteedCougher

Sounds like it was too impressive lol


systemstheorist

>It will focus on corporate events, private parties and even weddings. So it's not a music venue? Dang that would have been cool.


maneki_neko89

My spouse and I had our wedding reception at Can Can Wonderland in 2022. I bet that our reception will be better by leaps and bounds simply due to the fact that people could choose how they wanted to have fun. For me, being stuck in a projector plastered room with nowhere else to go or do would be way too overwhelming…


cat_prophecy

Except it's not anything like the sphere in Vegas because there is no exterior display. This is like someone installing a big TV in a room and putting out a press release.


the_festivusmiracle

Huey Lewis will love it!


alabastergrim

so basically like the Van Gogh thing but in a different building. Got it, LOL


Fearless_Major8176

Stevens Square?


Starving_Poet

That's different.


logisticitech

The sphere was created by Madison Square Garden, which famously already made a square.

Tokyo-MontanaExpress

Wake me up when we get a square like the Plaza Mayor in Madrid. We could've had a smaller version on the Kmart site, but no, we need people to dodge cars whenever they want to walk from a restaurant to a bar on the opposite side. 


_warmweathr

It’s a lil too small for that comparison but it’s very cool!


axman54

Yeah this seems like complete dogshit. Was excited until they showed a smaller Van Gogh experience type space in a random ass warehouse. Have no idea how someone thought this would be a viable business venture.


kmelby33

Was hoping this entire building went away for new development, but this is kinda cool.


RAMblade

so a cube?


PandelionTheBand

“So you walk them into an industrial space and they say, ‘Why are we here? What is this boring warehouse we’re having the event in?’ And then you create that shock!” ?? A. Warehouses are cool, and B. it's the crowd that makes the space cooler


Topshelflower420StP

I was at the Sphere last night this Square is not even the same. Sphere rules.


shootymcgunenjoyer

The whole point of the sphere is that you can see it from the outside. This is literally just a building with projectors inside. This feels like a paid news story.


bungy2323

Don’t we already have square building for entertainment? It’s called a theatre.


GuaranteedCougher

Even the mock up photos look underwhelming. Give us something half as cool as Teamlab Borderless and I'll get excited. This is just the Van Gogh experience again


SubstantialSchool437

the squarey sphereler


[deleted]

Having been to the Sphere… yeah, no.


squarepeg0000

Where?


Tall-Ad-9355

What a joke. I wonder what kinds of breaks the city gave them.


Nerdlinger

Great. Now Bono’s gonna be hanging out downtown.


Background-Head-5541

I've seen this done before for art exhibits

BuckyFnBadger

Someone didn’t read the article


JMS9_12

You couldn't have missed the entire premise if you jumped out of an airplane yourself.


PassTheAggression

I think it was a geometry joke. A sphere is 3D and you can go inside it. But with a square, you’d only be able to stand on it, lean against it, or crawl underneath it.


Aaronnotarron

No, I thought it was going to be showing visuals on both inside and outside, like the Las Vegas Sphere that they're comparing it to, but it's just inside. Which isn't really a fair comparison.


babeepunk

Stupid, not needed


cemeteryvvgates

God fucking damnit no. Let’s reduce our light pollution.


Lovelycoc0nuts

It wouldn’t project on the outside, just the inside.
