ST UPDATE

No Ordinary Wall

"UPTOWN" Sign
To Stay Upright

After a fervent response from the local
community, AMC Theaters announced
that it will renovate - but not replace -
a beloved sign affixed atop the 81-yearold Uptown Theater in Washington,
DC's Cleveland Park neighborhood.
The theater chain originally aspired
to replace the 22-ft.-wide, red neon
"UPTOWN" sign, but according to
WAMU.org, AMC changed its tune
after locals rallied in support of the
sign. Instead, the sign's lighting will
be retrofitted with LEDs for improved
energy efficiency.

LG Electronics Business Solutions recently unveiled the largest OLED screen and high-definition video wall the
world has seen at the Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo in the United Arab Emirates. The 164 x 45-ft. wall was
constructed using 820 Open Frame LG OLED digital panels. Open Frame can be aligned into either convex or concave
curves in both landscape and portrait modes. LG's OLED technology is also emissive (the display emits its own light),
removing the requirement for backlighting.
