this is one of the features that wet had a semi successful launch with.. however Glacia ice feature and the Halo tube water feature inside The Crystal retail, are a disgrace to the MGM Mirage..
Cute but I wouldn't make a special trip over there to see it. It's no Bellagio fountain. Music should be added to it. It needs more Pop but it's a good start. thanks for sharing.
This fountain just runs continuously rather than having independent shows that run every hour. As such, it is not intended for the choreography to be coordinated with any music. I suppose it could be done for special events if Aria wanted it though.
Beautiful fountain, but the lighting design is pretty weak. Very flashy, with no regard or concern for spill of light on the adjacent buildings, and rolling through multiple colors to get to a desired color. Seems a shame to have such a great fountain and fall short on the lighting aspect of it.
Well, keep in mind that this was only the 1st show the choreographers programed (at about 3am & in 30 degree weather). It was mostly a test to see what it would look like. All those issues can be addressed in the programming (i.e. pointing the lights away from buildings, and closing the shutters on lights while scrolling through colors)
Beautiful! Is it fun working on a WET Design display? Also...is there truth to the rumor that this show, somehow, displays similar bright colors on a sunny day?
Yes, the WET features (and the devices in them) are quite fun to work on. =)
As for the lights, the colors are definitely visible during the day as well. However, it's difficult to compete with how vivid and intense they look at night.
im studying architecture in monterrey mexico and i happened to be at the city center grand openning this last week and i have got to say that one of the best features abut the entire complex is this fountain, it really brings life to the main entrance, and i have to admitt i was pretty amazed by all the colors and coreography that are involved in this fountain, i can even say it can compete with the fountain at the belaggio... GREAT JOB !!!
Great job! Looks really cool on here. Cant wait to see it in person, as well as the rest of CityCenter

It's nice but not a destination like the Bellagio fountains, which are simply spectacular. This thing is cute at best.

Does this fountain do any choreographed shows with music, or is it planned to do so, or is it as-shown, an animated show only?
