UNLV School of Architecture associate professor Joshua Vermillion was quoted in a Los Angeles Times article by Carolina Miranda about the Las Vegas Sphere:
"So is Sphere, with its unusual shape, a duck? Or does its billboard surface make it a decorated shed?

Vermillion was also recently one of eight artists and designers featured in an artificial intelligence editorial in the latest Dutch design issue of ELLE magazine.
