Vectorial Elevation is a [crowdsourced light show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maybank-light-show) that is way too epic for words. But I'll try and describe it. The Vectorial Elevation Vancouver website has a virtual model of Vancouver on it. You can design "[light sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suspended-lighting-installation)" with up to 20 searchlights located around the English Bay. Every night the virtual submissions are uploaded onto a queue and displayed sequentially. [Public art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/craig-karl2) is always an awesome idea. Vectorial Elevation Vancouver is a wonderful way to be a part of the Winter Olympics. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 11% | Activity: 88% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Crowdsourcing Light Shows:** Opportunity for individuals and communities to create and contribute to large-scale light displays through crowdsourcing. - **Virtual Design and Display:** Utilizing virtual platforms to design and showcase light sculptures in real-world settings. - **Public Art Engagement:** Increasing public involvement and participation in art through interactive and collaborative displays. ### Where This Applies - **Event Management:** Incorporating crowdsourced light shows into events such as festivals, concerts, and other large-scale gatherings. - **Tourism and Hospitality:** Leveraging virtual design and interactive light displays to attract tourists and enhance visitor experiences. - **Smart City Technology:** Integrating crowdsourced light shows as part of smart city initiatives to engage residents and enhance urban environments. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stunningly Intricate Light Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-of-light.md) - [Winter Light Art Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nordic-lights.md) - [Outdoor Light-Up Globes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moongarden.md) - [Immersive Light Show Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/llumi.md) - [Eclipse-Themed Rooftop Artworks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-zero.md) - [Dynamic Interactive Lighting Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zava.md) - [Immersive Holiday Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/immersive-holiday-experience.md) - [Unique Interactive Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-aurora.md) - [Concept-Driven Public Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ivan-toth-depea.md)
