Wynn Las Vegas Marquee Fubar

One of the greatest aspects of living in a high-tech world is seeing electronic signs on the fritz. Nothing gets me more excited than a slew of dead pixels, digital distortion, shorted out panels, muffed up colors, Windows alert box errors and the motherload : building sized blue screens of death.

It goes without saying that much merriment and celebration followed the sighting of Wynn Las Vegas' sublimely creative marquee showing a bit of humanity by offering up a crazy quilt of digital distortion. Rothko meets Breakout in a slate/grayscale palette? Even in distortion Wynn provokes artistically. Kudos!

Between the sign FUBAR and the Encore website slowness, one wonders if WLV/E@WLV is still feeling the effects of the recently completed phase of Mercury in retrograde.

Perhaps Wynn should have an astrological consultation with Dionne Warwick and her network of psychic friends?

I'm fairly certain that's just Steve showing off his latest Mondrian.

Yeah see that sign is actually a new Picasso painting he bought. He's just letting everyone know what it looks like.

Maybe Steve is showing off his idea for the casino carpeting inside Encore?

FINALLY an election where the people's votes won't give a shit! YAY!

Do you suppose that Steve will fix it or cover it up with a crappy picture a`la Paris Las Vegas?
