Launched in Times Square

A GLOBAL GATHERING OF LIGHT

Each participant contributed a one-minute video of WHAT LOOK UP MEANS TO THEM to be broadcast to millions throughout the day across the three Times Square billboards rotating twice an hour.

Viewers can scan QR codes embedded on the screens connecting audiences directly to the full videos and biographies, transforming Times Square into an interactive gallery of global creativity.

With more than 1.5 million viewers daily, LOOK UP merges art, film, and technology into a shared meditation on connection and possibility.
