Celebrating with Light

By Ali Al Yousifi

               As Kuwait’s National Day and Liberation Day came and went; it seemed like, for a while, everything in Kuwait got dressed in green, white, and red. Streets, cars, houses, and even towers were covered with colored neon lights and giant flags. To me, no act of celebration was more impressive than the lightshow displayed on the Wataniya tower, which sits at the intersection where Sour Street and Riyadh Road cross.

               Opposite the Wataniya tower in the intersection is a tall scaffolding structure holding five wood platforms. These platforms carry projectors that shine their presentation on two large screens covering two facades of the tower.
Here are some other examples of buildings celebrating with light:
