Rhynchovola Jimminey Cricket = Brassavola nodosa × Rhyncholaelia digbyana

Unfortunately, it does not smell, even though Brassavola nodosa smells really nice, and Rhynchovolas are also supposed to have a smell.

With bonus Jiminy Cricket pin.

Exactly, it's the Venetian in Macau

Surprisingly, I didn't smell anything, even though it is supposed to smell.

Why is the first picture a Paphiopedilum? (It's an orchid)

Oh yeah thanks, that's what it reminded me of.
And btw, I didn't know those were moved.

The photograph is taken looking up in a room. There are thousands of cables hanging down from the ceiling to the floor, with LEDs attached at regular intervals. The room has mirrors on the walls, on the ceiling and on the floor, so in whatever direction you look you see this. The whole this is programmed to shown different colors changing over time, combined with music and sounds. You can go through the room through a predefined path where the cables are shorter and don't reach the floor, allowing you to walk under them. It gives the illusion that you're in the middle of some infinite arrangement of lights, going on in all directions, sometimes moving, sometimes rotating, or just pulsating with the music. The room is part of a wider art installation called "teamLab SuperNature", in Macau, and it is quite a unique experience.

I'm not so sure. They forgot the citations, and also the acknowledgments for the project that gave the funding.
