I just don't get tired of seeing this... (Universe of Energy, not electric scooters :lookaroun)
Is it the reflection playing tricks on me, or are there a bunch of mirror tiles missing? Sorry if I am a bit behind with this, but I haven't been back since this most recent refurb and I would have thought that they would have caught something like this.

Nice! I can't wait to get one of those cups!
Nice indeed! Does the sphere at the top actually emanate electric currents?
From what I could tell, they didn't look like they do anything, but...
The ball is definitely a plasma ball. Those signs will looks really sweet when they get them hooked up.
...hopefully you're right! That would be kind of cool.
They're there, it's a reflection of the pinkish tan of Innoventions East.
Not particularly, they've been up for a year or two.

Noticed they still have FX next to the mission control windows. Looks like Disco Mountain is staying. :lookaroun

Ahh look at that new cup, loving it will have to get myself one of these within the next few weeks.
As to the Universe of Energy shot, that was one of the nicest things about being at Disneyland Resort Paris, didn't see a single scooter, not one.
Thanks for keeping us up to date.:wave:

They were installed last night after Innoventions closed.
Nope. They've been there for a long time. And they are a pain to move.
No. Those too have been there quite a while.

I know where the main switch is and I tried it at 6:30AM this morning. Nothing happened. Maybe soon though.
New maps are in place now. Instead of one for each Innoventions they are 2-sided. Do these colors remind you of anything? :animwink:
The Innoventions East side of the map indicating Sum of All Thrills.
By the way, Sum of All Thrills should begin testing soon. The water dummies have been in the building for a couple of weeks and the computers have been moved up on the platform to start programing.

Any idea when Sum of all Thrills (SOAT!) will have a soft-opening?
Hoping to try it when I'm there Oct 10-20!

Won't be that soon unfortunately. There is still a lot of things to be added and the CMs for that area were only hired a week ago.
Oh, great, now I've got to go back again! :lol:
Thanks for the info! :wave:
Good to know those balls will indeed do something.
They've been out for at least a month, I had pictures of them in my August 14th update.

But they are surprisingly comfortable....
Great to hear that it will indeed be a plasma ball. I might want to touch it. :lookaroun:lol:
Sounds good for SoaT. Think they'll recruit park guests for testing?

Might be new at epcot, but Smarter Planet is IBM's new marketing campaign. I work in an Executive Briefing Center for IBM and we have it all over our center. Think place may just have been updated with that messaging.niiiiice!

Could be' Didn't the IBM Exhibit have a different name at one point. BTW' I was just watching the Parks & Resorts presentation and they show a clip from the ending of Spaceship Earth with less cartoonish music and a much less annoying Female voice.(and Marty Sklar.) Could this mean anything?

Old logos, old name, old marketing, nice color, amazing EPCOT.
:lol:And I'm a sucker for the 5 ring logo.
Love it. I can SEE the building. Amazing.That's really about it for today, but I'll in ahead and throw in some extra pics from the other day that I didn't upload to conserve space...
Ah, awesome.The ball is definitely a plasma ball. Those signs will looks really sweet when they get them hooked up.
