Marriott Hotels & Resorts and WIRED Hosted an Evening of Music & Art to Entertain and Inspire

An Evening of Innovative & Interactive Cultural Experiences with Critically Acclaimed Artist Todd McLellan and DJ KISS.   

2012-12-15 — /travelprnews.com/ — Marriott Hotels & Resorts, the signature brand of Marriott International, and WIRED, hosted Collective ReMix on Thursday, December 13, at the WIRED Store in New York City.

Marriott Hotels & Resorts and WIRED curated a special evening to celebrate art, music and innovation. Comedian Mark Normand hosted the event and throughout the night, guests had the chance to have their mood read through Marriott Hotels & Resorts’ Aura Cam, an interactive installation, to determine where they should travel to next. In addition, critically acclaimed photographer and artist Todd McLellan showcased pieces from his latest series entitled, “Disassembled.” Also select pieces by renowned brick artist Nathan Sawaya were on display. Well-known DJ and television personality, DJ KISS kept the celebration going with high energy beats and mash-ups while video art served as the backdrop of her DJ booth.

Samplings from Marriott Hotels & Resorts’ new 5-10-20 menu, which is made up of simple, fresh, chef-crafted food that can be delivered in approximately 5, 10 or 20 minutes, were served.

To showcase how Marriott Hotels & Resorts has been reimagining the guest experience, transforming its lobbies and public spaces to exceed the expectations of today’s travelers, the WIRED Store featured a model of Marriott’s Greatroom, which offers the perfect setting for opportunities to work and play.

This was the fourth event of the WIRED + Marriott Culturazzi Series this year, part of WIRED and Marriott’s partnership with WIRED Insiders — startup executives, digital game changers, gadget gurus, culture vultures, and adventurers — to curate monthly events through December, hosted at Marriott hotels, aimed to inspire, inform and entertain the next generation of travelers who blend work and play.
