#skyyys

Congratulations to Dave Greber on being awarded the Silver medal in the Transportation category of the Digital Signage Expo 2019 APEX Awards for his #MTAArts commissioned “Skyyys™" which was on view on Fulton Center’s 52 screens this winter! The award, produced by the Digital Signage Federation, recognizes achievement for installations, interactive technology and content creation.

A treat was had by all when Yaling Chen, MTA Arts & Design Deputy Director, gave a tour this week of Dave Greber’s Digital Artwork “Skyyys™” at Fulton Center to an enthusiastic group, as part of New York Digital Signage Week. Greber’s immersive 52-channel video installation can be seen for two minutes at the top of each hour in the Fulton Center complex and the Dey Street pedestrian corridor.

Dave Greber’s video installation playfully mimics the constant stream of visual information that we all experience daily. He remixed recognizable, colorful kinetic objects, into an entertaining and witty new universe of familiar objects such as balloons, bouncing balls and stuffed animals. The fluid pace, whimsical imagery, and prismatic palette of “Skyyys™” creates harmonious visual-music that complements the pace of commuters at Fulton center, a likewise kaleidoscopic space of transition.
