The AT&T Discovery District in downtown Dallas is one of the more ambitious experiential digital projects out there – in the U.S. or globally – with a big reason being the focus from the inception on coming up with something that was more than just the technology circus coming to town.
Telecoms giant AT&T engaged the huge global design firm Gensler to come up with a cohesive, visually exciting design concept for not only its headquarters building in Dallas, but for the area surrounding it – delivering a destination and talking point.
There is a massive LED media wall on the corner of one building, what Gensler calls digital trellises on the urban office campus plaza, and more LED on the walls, support columns and even the ceiling of the head office lobby. That’s coupled with synchronized lighting and something that sounds a bit like a show control system.
It’s super-impressive, and it cost more than a couple of bucks to build, and to sustain. The first wave of creative includes digital art from some of the top people in the field, from Refik Anadol to Moment Factory.
I had a chance to speak with two of the key people behind the project – Justin Rankin, director of Gensler’s Digital Experience Design Studio, and Dana Hamdan, the Project Manager on the project.
As face-to-face interaction becomes less of a priority in the marketplace, organizations of all types are reconsidering the ways they communicate with their customers. In many cases, they’re incorporating large-format displays to accomplish the task.
July’s D=SIGN Power Hour panel addressed multi-display & video wall content creation with moderator Paul Fleuranges of the Digital Signage Federation. Experts Daniel Hurtado of Userful, Digital Signage Creative Director Jim Nista, and Bryan Meszaros of OpenEye Global.
Display signage for retail qsr is the highest capital cost (aka big potato), albeit by themselves low margin
Selling those though often means selling a bunch of “small potatoes”, many with much higher profit
As Haynes sums it up — Recurring SaaS CMS revenue is the gift that keeps on giving.
Excerpt:
If you are active on the software side of digital signage, you’ve undoubtedly seen Samsung evolving its MagicINFO software from a low or no-cost add-on for small jobs to a full-featured enterprise platform that competes against pure-play CMS software companies.
LG has also had a product called SuperSign in the market for more than a decade, and that display manufacturer is also now marketing a full-featured product. The interesting wrinkle with LG is that it is touting a turnkey solution for QSR that includes built-in capabilities like queue management, open API POS integration and back of house workflow solutions.
It’s called SuperSign QSR, and it LOOKS like it is all in-house, as opposed to partnerships with third parties that specialize in things like queue management.

FAIRFAX, VA – Nov. 18, 2021 – AVIXA, the Audiovisual and Integrated Experience Association, is pleased to announce the winners of the 2021 AV Experience Awards. This awards program recognizes the innovative integration of content, space, and audiovisual technology to enrich experiences.
“We are witnesses to incredible AV experiences every day, as we work, play, and interact in the world,” said Joé Lloyd, Senior Director of Communications, AVIXA. “The winners of the AV Experience Awards are the creators of those experiences, breathing new life into art, education, collaboration, and so much more. Congratulations to the 2021 winners for elevating the craft of AV.”
In the spring of 2020, LuminArtz teamed up with Pamela Hersch, a local video artist and technologist, to create “Light Up the Night” at the Wenham Museum in Massachusetts. To continue celebrating local history while allowing for social distancing, the team created a 30-minute projection mapping exhibit on the exterior of the museum, featuring stunning visuals celebrating childhood, connecting generations, and honoring heritage. The exhibit was powered by Sharp NEC Display laser projectors, and while each projector provided 10,000 lumens, the outdoor nature of the project required an even higher level of brightness. This was achieved through a stacking configuration, which allowed three projectors to focus on the same area to increase the brightness of the image. The installation was also livestreamed on Facebook and Instagram to help connect the community during the time of restricted personal and physical connection.
BARTKRESA studio created an 8-foot, cube-shaped sculpture that artists could projection map as part of a socially distant projection arts festival. The studio held a 7-week virtual workshop with 50 participants from 18 countries to compose the content for the animated show for the sculpture Hako. During the remote video workshops, BARTKRESA studio utilized virtual backgrounds as one of the methods for participants to collaborate. The participants prepared their virtual backgrounds by using their designs of Hako. This created excitement and motivation for the participants as they were able to see the progress of designs via their virtual backgrounds. The result was a transformation of Hako into a 360-degree projection-mapped art piece that showed a simple shape in new, inspired ways.
Crayola IDEAworks: The Creativity Exhibition is a sprawling 17,000 square-foot interactive experience that premiered at Philadelphia’s Franklin Institute in early 2021.

The adventure is open-ended and self-guided.
The Port of Vancouver Discovery Centre serves multiple arms of the Port Authority, offering a space that converts from visitor Discovery Centre to education centre, to town hall meeting space, to event venue, and at times, all in the same 24 hours. Eos Lightmedia helped transform the Port of Vancouver Discovery Centre into a highly flexible space through the integration of interactive panels, projection mapping surfaces, digital informational kiosks, and broadcast-quality equipment.
Grandscape, built on more than 400 acres in Dallas, Texas, features entertainment, restaurants, residential, and office space. Electrosonic and Barnycz Group collaborated to design and integrate engaging and visually stunning multimedia displays that inform and entertain Grandscape’s retail space visitors. This is accomplished with a 43-foot tower made up of 4,000 LED video tiles, a 35-foot kaleidoscope created with 432 LED tiles, and a projection-mapped fountain.
Award entries were submitted by various team members involved in the project, whether project originator, creative or technology agency, or the customer. This includes brand agencies, experience design firms, AV consultants, designers and integrators, AV manufacturers, and others.
With the support of like-minded industry organizations across the globe, including the Association of Luxury Suite Directors, Hospitality Technology Next Generation, and European University Information Systems Organization, the AV Experience Awards program provides promotional support to project award finalists and winners in targeted vertical markets.

Double screen Wayfinder
More Info
Gable deploys twin screen mall kiosk — From Sixteen:Nine –The retail-centric solutions company Gable has deployed an interesting double display in an Ohio shopping mall that uses one screen for navigation and directory lookup, and a second for DOOH advertising.The company, based in the Baltimore area, says the display unit is the first of its kind, and I can’t say I’ve seen something like this. I HAVE seen mall displays in the UAE that had a big DOOH poster display and a much smaller display kind of flanking it. But this is a BIG landscape mode display set up in a drafting table orientation, with another, equally large display in portrait mode above it.
The display is at the Polaris Shopping Center in Columbus, Ohio and the units are running UK-based Acquire’s wayfinding and signage system software. Gable gets its screens custom-made in China by a longtime partner.
Transparent OLEDs by LG used in the Citizen Watch store near Herald Square in NYC. Noted on AVNetwork
Excerpt
Shopping during the pandemic shifted consumer behaviors to an online storefront. Building upon what consumers liked about the online experience, creative teams and retail brands are enticing shoppers back to physical stores. Technologies delivering immersive in-person experiences that combine the info-gathering power of the internet with the excitement of being able to touch and try a product have ushered-in the next-level shopper.
The new Citizen Watch shop in a major Herald Square department store in New York City, recently installed one of the first consumer-facing augmented reality product display cases. Leveraging LG Transparent OLED technology, the new retail display overlays mesmerizing high-impact digital visuals onto a watch display case to pull the viewer in as it showcases the real watches behind the graphics.
A 360-degree Product Examination
The innovative retail project is the brainchild of Citizen Watch with Pac Team Group, Luminary Design Co. and LG Business Solutions, each of which brought unique interests, requirements and expertise to the project.

From Sixteen:Nine and Dave Haynes — Korean University Uses LED-embedded Building Glass With Near 99%+ Transparency
Excerpt:
This is a video of architectural glass with embedded RGB LEDs that still offer 99%+ transparency – in this case at a university building in South Korea.
There may well be engineering, supply, and cost reasons why architects and building engineers say this sort of thing is not feasible, but it certainly seems there is “next big thing” potential for this technology for the digital signage and building design industries.
Conventional LED cabinets block views, and if a designer goes with the mesh LED products out there, the mesh grids that contain the LEDs and wiring are noticeable – particularly from the non-illuminated rear.
There are products that apply a transparent film to glass – some of it is better than others. And the thing with films is they can peel, crack or discolor with time.
But if you can put the LEDs right into the architectural glass – for things like the curtain walls at major buildings and venues like airports – that gets really interesting. I don’t think the brightness is there, however, to make these pop in full daylight, which is why you see a lot of transparent LED project videos and images shot at night.
This project uses specialty glass displays from GSMATT, which is a Korean tech firm. It went in via a UK firm, adi.tv.
Interested to hear from others if they think LED in building glass has a big future, or if there are practical reasons that might restrict the types of applications and adoption.
Several industry contacts have been telling me, going back months, about a very cool project in Dallas that they were part of … but didn’t have permission to officially promote.
That’s changed, and the formal word is out about a new-ish downtown Dallas destination venue that’s been dubbed the AT&T Discovery District. The four-block development is a bunch of things, among them a hub for all kinds of displays and experiential content.
The global design firm Gensler was commissioned to dream up and execute the project by AT&T, Montreal’s Moment Factory was engaged to come up with the experiential content plan, and SNA Displays won the deal to manufacture and put in some 12,000 sq. feet of LED displays, across more than a dozen different screen set-ups.
DALLAS, TEXAS—Technology and media giant AT&T has built a new downtown Dallas destination venue known as the AT&T Discovery District®. The four-block development, “where tech, culture and entertainment combine to create unique experiences” according to The District’s website, includes a network of indoor and outdoor digital display and lighting assets that can be synchronized to create multi-sensory experiences.
AT&T Digital Signage Photos
SNA Displays was selected to provide more than 12,000 square feet of digital canvas for the massive development. In total, SNA Displays manufactured, supplied, and installed more than a dozen LED video displays and 100 million pixels for the city’s new landmark destination.
Global design and architecture firm Gensler provided design, architectural, and project management services for all aspects and phases of the project. Gensler worked closely with AT&T to carefully curate and manage a diverse and world-class lineup of digital artists to produce unique content featured across all LED video displays, in addition to designing and producing various content capsules themselves.
High-end LED display technology was installed in three key locations within The District: The Plaza at AT&T Discovery District, the AT&T Experience Store, and the AT&T Headquarters Lobby. All displays are part of a digital network of seamlessly integrated media elements that enable immersive take-over moments of lighting, audio, and creative video content, made possible by an intricate content and platform management system engineered and implemented by Moment Factory.
THE PLAZA AT AT&T DISCOVERY DISTRICT
The Plaza at the AT&T Discovery District has an open lawn for the community, water features, the iconic Golden Boy statue, twin media trellises with kinetic color-changing LED lighting and premium audio, and The Globe, a 3D LED light sculpture that represents the AT&T brand.
AT&T Digital Signage Photos
The focal point of The Plaza is The Media Wall at AT&T Discovery District, a massive 104-foot-tall, 8,700-square-foot exterior LED screen from SNA Displays that wraps around the high-rise at the corner of Akard and Jackson streets. The LED spectacular was built from SNA Displays’ EMPIRE Exterior line of display products and features a 6.67 mm pixel pitch, meaning the screen includes more than 18 million pixels. SNA Displays supported the AT&T team during city planning meetings and helped with technical details during the permitting process. The Media Wall, which is mounted on the building façade just above the entrance to the AT&T Experience Store, is 84′ wide and curves around the building with an extremely tight 5’4″ radius, allowing the screen’s breathtaking video content to flow around the building smoothly and seamlessly.
The Media Wall features a resolution sufficient for two 4K displays stacked on top of each other with room for additional content. With an overall resolution of 4,752 pixels high by 3,840 pixels wide, The Media Wall is one of the largest displays of its pixel pitch in the United States.
AT&T Digital Signage EXPERIENCE STORE
AT&T Digital Signage Photos
The AT&T Experience Store includes three LED display assets: two flat-screen displays and a floor-to-ceiling, LED-wrapped circular pillar.
When designing the store, AT&T sought ultra-fine-pitch LED technology that would allow visitors to explore a range of immersive experiences, including interactive, limited-time pop-ups. All LED screens in the store are from SNA Displays’ BRILLIANT Interior line of display products, each employing a narrow pixel pitch of 1.92 mm.
The two LED walls are 8’10” tall and 15’9″ wide (1,404 pixels by 2,496 pixels). Unwrapped, the circular column LED canvas measures 9’7″ high and 17’9″ wide (1,521 x 2,808 pixels).
AT&T HEADQUARTERS LOBBY
The design concept for AT&T’s 37-story global headquarters, which has over one million square feet of office space, was to create a modern media lobby with a one-of-a-kind, floor-to-ceiling fusion of architecture, multimedia content, and technology.
The AT&T Lobby consists of eight LED-wrapped rectangular columns and the Media Box, a large three-sided video wall that serves as the lobby’s focal point. The LED columns vary in height throughout the lobby and can be synchronized with the Media Box and the location’s expansive LED ceiling “veil,” a diffused lighting feature from the second story which visually connects each of the lobby’s digital elements with color.
The Media Box is 13’3″ tall and 60’4″ wide with a resolution of 2,106 pixels by 9,568 pixels, giving it more than 20 million pixels.
AT&T Digital Signage Photos
Given the close proximity of walk-up visitors in the lobby, the Media Box and digital columns were also built with 1.92 mm pixel pitch technology from SNA Displays’ BRILLIANT Interior product line. In total, the lobby video technology includes more than 70 million pixels and 3,000 square feet of LED canvas.
The content featured in the lobby is one-of-a-kind and designed to create unique moments of immersion into the AT&T brand, accented by strategically placed audio that surprises and delights visitors and employees as they navigate their way through the space.
SNA Displays worked closely with Gensler throughout the AT&T Discovery District’s development. SNA Displays coordinated with YESCO and Barnett Signs to install the huge Media Wall. Additionally, the Beck Group provided general contracting services and oversaw the installation of the AT&T Lobby and AT&T Experience Store’s LED displays. A host of content creators have provided video and animation work for The District’s video display assets including Ari Weinkle, BOLT, Core Creative Labs, DixonBaxi, Float4, Maaambo, Moment, Factory, MUCH Creative, Reel FX Animation, Refik Anadol Studio, Sila Sveta, and Universal Everything.

Previously, using Chrome OS was limited to dedicated hardware like the Chromeboxes, all-in-one screens and even sticks a small set of manufacturers were putting out.
The pitch for Chrome OS Flex is that it makes PCs and Macs secure, fast, auto-updated and managed from the cloud. Devices, and now not just ones with Chrome in the name, are all managed via the Chrome device management console.
The Flex license is free and I assume Google and its resellers make money though the management software.
Paris, January 27th, 2022 – JCDecaux SA (Euronext Paris: DEC), the number one Out-of-Home Media company worldwide, announced today its revenue for the full-year 2021.
Commenting on the Group’s 2021 revenue performance, Jean-François Decaux, Chairman of the Executive Board and Co-CEO of JCDecaux, said:
“Our 2021 group revenue grew by +18.7%, +18.5% on an organic basis, to reach €2,744.6 million driven by a very strong digital revenue growth and a better than expected Q4 despite national and local mobility restrictions including semi-lockdowns in some European and Asia-Pacific countries. The strong revenue growth in Q4 2021 at +37.5%, +34.7% organically, demonstrates once again the rebound capacity and the growth potential of JCDecaux.
Digital Out Of Home (DOOH) grew by +73.8% in Q4 2021 and by +33.2% in full-year 2021 to reach a record 26.9% of Group revenue for 2021 and a quarterly record of 31.4% of Group revenue in Q4. We continued to accelerate our digital transformation and maintained our focus on the roll-out of digital screens and on the development of our automated data-driven planning and trading solutions. Programmatic advertising gained good momentum via the VIOOH platform which is now trading in 15 countries, connected to multiple DSPs (Demand Side Platforms).
Street Furniture was strong at +35.8% organically in Q4 2021 and already above Q4 2019 levels in Europe (including France and UK). Billboard grew significantly as well at +23.5% on an organic basis in Q4 2021. Transport continued to improve quarter-on-quarter with a high Q4 organic revenue growth of +38.7% but remained meaningfully impacted by ongoing restrictions on global international passenger traffic and, to a lesser extent, by lower commuter traffic in public transport than pre-pandemic.
All geographies grew strongly in Q4 2021. Europe (including France and UK) reached revenue levels very close to Q4 2019 while the other regions (North America, Asia-Pacific and Rest of the World) recorded a strong rebound vs 2020 but remained the most affected regions, mainly due to their Transport exposure and to mobility restrictions. In China, in Q4 as well as for full-year 2021, revenues were close to pre-Covid levels for domestic transport advertising and already above 2019 revenue levels for domestic airport advertising more specifically.
We will provide a revenue guidance for Q1 2022 when we release our full-year 2021 results on March 10th, 2022.
As the most digitised global OOH company with our new data-led audience targeting and programmatic solutions, our well diversified portfolio, our ability to win new contracts, the strength of our balance sheet and the high quality of our teams across the world, we believe we are well positioned to benefit from the rebound. We are more than ever confident in the power of our media in an advertising landscape increasingly fragmented and more and more digital and in the role it will play to support the economic recovery as well as to drive positive changes.”

Questex announces strategy to provide year-long engagement platform for Digital Signage community
Co-locates Digital Signage Experience event with LDI and XLIVE in November at the Las Vegas Convention Center
NEW YORK, Jan. 26, 2022 — Questextoday announces a new strategy to engage with the global digital signage community, providing a series of touch points throughout the year to connect buyers and sellers. As part of this new approach, the company announces that the Digital Signage Experience will move to November 2022 and will be co-located at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC) with Live Design International (LDI)and XLIVE – two large Questex events focused on the entertainment design and technology industry as well as live event experiences.
“In discussions with our advisory board and industry stakeholders, it became clear that there were several strong reasons to move the event – the DSE community signaled that it wants to get together later in the year, allowing us to align the show better with year-end planning cycles,” says Marian Sandberg, VP & Market Leader, Questex. “In addition, as public spaces and digital worlds continue to evolve, the digital screen becomes an increasingly essential portal to future experiences and bringing together these three technology and experience focused events makes a great deal of sense.”
The new year-round engagement strategy includes:
A dedicated digital signage pavilion, content tracks and networking at Questex’s upcoming Bar & Restaurant Expo on March 21-23, 2022 in Las Vegas.
A series of webinars and virtual events designed at reaching digital signage end user markets, leveraging Questex established audiences across Hotels, Hospitality, Education, Healthcare, Technology and other sectors.
A regular interview series with digital signage thought leaders and association partners to discuss and understand the shifting landscape of digital signage needs.
All these activities will culminate in the DSE event on November 17-19, 2022, co-located with LDI and XLIVE.
“We support DSE’s strategic shift to later in the year,” says Rich Ventura, Vice President of B2B for Sony Electronics’ Professional Solutions Americas and DSE Advisory Board Member. “We have heard a great deal of excitement around the relaunch of DSE from our digital signage colleagues and I know the anticipation will only build. Moving the show to November, and especially alongside another technology show, creates a beneficial opportunity for attendees. We look forward to sponsoring the revival of this iconic industry event in the fall.”
Jackie Walker, Senior Director, CX & Innovation Consulting for Publicis Sapient, adds, “We are very excited about running the show alongside LDI, allowing attendees to get a much more holistic view of the opportunities in digital signage extending to audience immersion and broader customer experience in one trip to Las Vegas.”
Brad Gleeson, Executive Producer, Digital Signage Experience, explains, “LDI and XLIVE are a natural fit for a co-location, and we’re excited about the crossover audience. Our new strategy will also help to get digital signage solution providers in front of the wide ranging Questex end user audiences throughout the year – from hotels, education, healthcare, bars and restaurants – we can help connect audiences.”
Questex is committed to providing a full refund to all attendees, exhibitors and sponsors who were previously signed up to participate in DSE on March 22-24, 2022 event in Las Vegas. Further details on how to register, attend and exhibit at DSE on November 17-19, 2022 at the Las Vegas Convention Center will be available shortly on the DSE website.
