Sydney is the oldest, biggest,
and most beautiful of all
00:00:25.52\00:00:30.06
Australian
00:00:30.09\00:00:31.43
cities. It lies a bit of
seductive intermingling of land
00:00:31.46\00:00:34.46
and sea. From spring in Sydney
Harbor, idylic beaches and great
00:00:34.50\00:00:40.20
national parks to the marvelous
creativity of Sydney Opera House
00:00:40.24\00:00:44.31
dazzling entertainment and
fascinating heritage, Sydney has
00:00:44.34\00:00:49.78
it all. It's considered to be
one of the most beautiful cities
00:00:49.81\00:00:54.65
in the world. It fans out from
the sparkling harbor to iconic
00:00:54.68\00:01:00.36
Bondi Beach in the east, Golden
Park Beach in the north, the
00:01:00.39\00:01:04.36
Blue Mountains in the west and
Australia's oldest national park
00:01:04.39\00:01:08.30
in the south. This vibrant city
shines all year with spectacular
00:01:08.33\00:01:15.74
events including the world
famous Sydney New Year's Eve
00:01:15.77\00:01:19.14
fireworks, block buster musicals
brilliant theater, sailing
00:01:19.17\00:01:25.21
regattas, surfing competitions
and thrilling sports. But for 23
00:01:25.25\00:01:31.09
days each year Sydney pulls out
all the stops and really turns
00:01:31.12\00:01:35.99
the lights on to produce it's
multi-award-winnning festival of
00:01:36.02\00:01:40.10
lights called Vivid Sydney.
It transforms the city into the
00:01:40.13\00:01:45.80
world's largest outdoor art
gallery of lights, music and
00:01:45.83\00:01:50.97
ideas. It's mesmerizing light
art illuminates in brilliant
00:01:51.01\00:01:56.95
color striking architecture,
sculptures, buildings, the
00:01:56.98\00:02:01.95
bridge and gardens and
gives them a whole new feeling.
00:02:01.98\00:02:04.99
In this program, you'll discover
just why such a brilliant and
00:02:05.02\00:02:10.36
unique annual event illuminates
the Light of the world.
00:02:10.39\00:02:14.66

00:02:14.70\00:02:42.06
Sydney is known as the harbor
city. It's spectacularly draped
00:02:42.09\00:02:46.09
around its glorious harbor
and beaches. It has a visual wow
00:02:46.13\00:02:51.93
factor like few other cities.
Scratch its surface and it only
00:02:51.97\00:02:57.97
gets better. It's the largest,
oldest and most cosmopolitan
00:02:58.01\00:03:02.54
city in Australia with an
inviable reputation as one of
00:03:02.58\00:03:07.28
the world's most beautiful and
livable cities. Brimming with
00:03:07.32\00:03:11.99
history, nature, culture, art,
fashion, cuisine, design, Sydney
00:03:12.02\00:03:18.93
is located next to kilometers of
ocean coastline and sandy surf
00:03:18.96\00:03:24.50
beaches. The city is also home
to the Sydney Opera House and
00:03:24.53\00:03:28.37
the Sydney Harbor Bridge, two
of the most iconic structures on
00:03:28.40\00:03:33.07
this planet. The city
is surrounded by nature and
00:03:33.11\00:03:37.55
national parks which extend
through the surburbs and right
00:03:37.58\00:03:41.58
to the shores of it's
magnificent harbor. Today Sydney
00:03:41.62\00:03:45.99
is a major global city and
an important financial center in
00:03:46.02\00:03:50.93
the Asia-Pacific region.
Now there are downtowns of _
00:03:50.96\00:03:56.67
everywhere in the world of
course but I think Vivid Sydney
00:03:56.70\00:04:00.14
creates a downtown you won't see
anywhere else. It's the world's
00:04:00.17\00:04:05.94
largest festival of light,
music and ideas. It features
00:04:05.97\00:04:10.75
spectacular outdoor lighting and
projection displays on Sydney's
00:04:10.78\00:04:15.05
iconic landmarks, historic
buildings and popular locations.
00:04:15.08\00:04:20.16
It literally transforms Sydney
into one huge dazzling nighttime
00:04:20.19\00:04:27.03
canvas of light as these places
are illuminated in brilliant
00:04:27.06\00:04:31.50
color. The city becomes a
wonderland of light art. Vivid
00:04:31.53\00:04:36.74
Sydney also features music and
ideas as well as light. People
00:04:36.77\00:04:43.01
come to contemporary music
programs and they're also many
00:04:43.04\00:04:45.58
of the world's most important
creative industry forums. Yes,
00:04:45.61\00:04:50.95
this is where art, technology
and commerce intersect.
00:04:50.99\00:04:56.26
Something called Vivid Ideas
is the Asia-Pacific's annual
00:04:56.29\00:05:00.20
celebration of innovation,
creativity and community.
00:05:00.23\00:05:05.07
It offers all kinds of
professional development
00:05:05.10\00:05:08.17
opportunities. And also builds
audiences and markets for the
00:05:08.20\00:05:12.77
creative industries. People can
check out some 200 events from
00:05:12.81\00:05:17.81
industry conferences to keynote
talks, from networking sessions
00:05:17.85\00:05:22.38
to hands-on workshops. It
definitely is Vivid Ideas. But
00:05:22.42\00:05:28.86
surely the most striking theme
that embodies ideas, music and
00:05:28.89\00:05:34.36
light is the Sydney Opera House,
the star attraction of the
00:05:34.40\00:05:38.70
glittering harbor and of Vivid
Sydney. This iconic and graceful
00:05:38.73\00:05:43.77
building shaped like shells of
billowing sails is lit up in the
00:05:43.81\00:05:49.31
most beautiful way. This Sydney
Opera House is a multi-venue
00:05:49.34\00:05:54.42
performing arts center. It's
situated on Bennelong Point in
00:05:54.45\00:05:58.75
Sydney habor close to the Sydney
Harbor Bridge. Next door is
00:05:58.79\00:06:03.83
Sydney's central business
district and also the Royal
00:06:03.86\00:06:06.86
Botanic Gardens. This building
was designed by Danish architect
00:06:06.90\00:06:13.27
Jorn Utzon. He was the winner
of an international design
00:06:13.30\00:06:15.77
competition. The New South Wales
government led by Premier Cahill
00:06:15.80\00:06:20.81
authorized work to begin way
back in 1958. Utzon directed the
00:06:20.84\00:06:26.21
construction. But then things
got complicated. The costs built
00:06:26.25\00:06:32.42
up, there were scheduling
overruns and Utzon ultimately
00:06:32.45\00:06:35.99
resigned as the architect. It
was finally completed and opened
00:06:36.02\00:06:40.40
formally by Queen Elizabeth
in 1973. This classic structure
00:06:40.43\00:06:47.24
isn't just an opera house. It
comprises multiple performance
00:06:47.27\00:06:52.54
venues. In fact, this is now one
of the busiest performing arts
00:06:52.57\00:06:56.71
centers in the world, 1500
performances each year, 1.2
00:06:56.75\00:07:02.42
million people attending. In
fact, the city opera house was
00:07:02.45\00:07:07.96
identified as one of the
20th century's most distinctive
00:07:07.99\00:07:11.99
buildings. In 2007, it became a
UNESCO World Heritage site. Now
00:07:12.03\00:07:20.60
here's something else you see,
quite big, quite striking just
00:07:20.64\00:07:24.71
beyond the opera house.
It's the Sydney Harbor Bridge or
00:07:24.74\00:07:29.54
coat hanger as the locals call
it. Supported by massive double
00:07:29.58\00:07:33.58
peers at both ends it was built
in 1932 and remains the world's
00:07:33.62\00:07:39.95
largest steel arch bridge
connecting the harbor's north
00:07:39.99\00:07:43.86
and south shores in a single
curve rising 134 meters above
00:07:43.89\00:07:49.96
the water. And now all this
mystery and drama is reflected
00:07:50.00\00:07:56.30
in the bridge's beautiful and
dramatic light display. During
00:07:56.34\00:08:01.18
Vivid Sydney, the narrowed
cobbled lane ways and it's solid
00:08:01.21\00:08:05.61
buildings are lit in brilliant
color and still fits with the
00:08:05.65\00:08:11.62
with the adventerous spirit of
it's original setting. Further
00:08:11.65\00:08:15.69
along the narrow cobblestone
alley ways is Illuminasaurus
00:08:15.72\00:08:20.40
capturing a dinasaur in a moment
of fierce pursuit. Then there's
00:08:20.43\00:08:25.83
the 1000 cranes inspired an
ancient Japanese legend. The
00:08:25.87\00:08:31.67
artists have created a canopy
of hanging origami cranes that
00:08:31.71\00:08:36.54
light up as visitors move
through the space. As the crowd
00:08:36.58\00:08:40.52
grows more cranes light up
until 1000 cranes are fully
00:08:41.75\00:08:46.42
illuminated sharing a colorful
message of peace and happiness.
00:08:46.45\00:08:50.83
Farther along the harbor light
trail visitors find Customs
00:08:50.86\00:08:57.87
House, an historic Sydney
landmark located in a circular
00:08:57.90\00:09:01.67
key area that was constructed
in 1845. It served as the
00:09:01.70\00:09:07.81
headquarters of the Australian's
Customs and Border Protection
00:09:07.84\00:09:10.91
Service. During Vivid Sydney,
it's home to two of Australia's
00:09:10.95\00:09:16.08
favorite fictional charcters.
Exactly 100 years ago author
00:09:16.12\00:09:22.92
May Gibbs gave Australia two
little fictional characters who
00:09:22.96\00:09:26.70
dropped out of a gum tree
and became instant super stars.
00:09:26.73\00:09:30.70
Since then pretty well every
Australian child has grown up
00:09:30.73\00:09:35.90
steeped in the adventures
of the intrepid Gumnut Babies.
00:09:35.94\00:09:40.21
Generations of Australian
children have vowed for their
00:09:40.24\00:09:45.01
Gumnut heroes as they battled
the evil Banksia men and their
00:09:45.05\00:09:49.75
wicked henchmen, the vicious
Mrs. Snake and the voracious
00:09:49.78\00:09:54.79
monster octupus. There's more
brillian light art farther along
00:09:54.82\00:09:59.83
the light walk at East Circular
Key. Light art with exotic names
00:09:59.86\00:10:05.63
like Visible Dynamics,
fragmented and chrysalis
00:10:05.67\00:10:10.21
combine to deliver
decorative light patterns that
00:10:10.24\00:10:13.51
twirl, tumble,
00:10:13.54\00:10:15.84
spin and turn upside down. There
are mesmerized viewers who pass
00:10:15.88\00:10:20.35
by on their way to the Botanical
Gardens. Visitors pass through
00:10:20.38\00:10:25.62
the Queen Elizabeth II gates and
into the Royal Botanical Gardens
00:10:25.65\00:10:30.63
and then follow a pathway
that weaves through an exciting
00:10:30.66\00:10:34.90
nocturnal environment revealing
wonders created by artists and
00:10:34.93\00:10:40.20
inspired by nature. First
you wander through the nautilus
00:10:40.24\00:10:44.71
forest dodging strange spiral
like creations that might be
00:10:44.74\00:10:49.61
trees but could just as easily
be corals or some curious form
00:10:49.64\00:10:54.28
of animal life. The forest feels
alive, rippling and pulsing with
00:10:54.32\00:11:00.09
color. On the other side of
the forest is The Bloom, a giant
00:11:00.12\00:11:05.59
electric botanic flower its
petals adorned with mirrors that
00:11:05.63\00:11:10.63
retract and reflect light.
Then the Nacra, a breathtaking
00:11:10.67\00:11:17.11
natural or unnatural seashell
aglomeration and other designs
00:11:17.14\00:11:21.14
which guide you to a series
of weird and wonderful light
00:11:21.18\00:11:25.51
creations that twist, turn,
radiate and dazzle. At last
00:11:25.55\00:11:32.49
explore Aqueous an interesting
pathway of light and one of the
00:11:32.52\00:11:37.56
first pattern based physical
sculptures of size and scales
00:11:37.59\00:11:41.96
that create the landscape of
life and this is just a taste
00:11:42.00\00:11:46.03
of the exotic, the beautiful and
the intriguing and the downright
00:11:46.07\00:11:51.31
strange works of light that lure
visitors through the garden.
00:11:51.34\00:11:55.91
Then we follow the light
trail further and walk along the
00:11:55.94\00:12:00.42
shoreline to Darling Harbor.
Here the light and water combine
00:12:00.45\00:12:05.89
create fantastic oceans. Water
features comes to life as jelly
00:12:05.92\00:12:10.96
fish in a fantastic display
of color. Feature fountains
00:12:10.99\00:12:15.63
emulate corals and deep sea
flora. Lasers ripple like ocean
00:12:15.66\00:12:21.84
waves or make silhouettes of
deep sea creatures. The dancing
00:12:21.87\00:12:25.61
water jets and full color lasers
turn your walk into a dreamlike
00:12:25.64\00:12:31.85
dive under the ocean. Then
Vivid's dazzling light walk
00:12:31.88\00:12:36.42
extends over the bridge to the
north side of the harbor. Luna
00:12:36.45\00:12:41.09
Park, Sydney's iconic amusement
park, comes alive with an array
00:12:41.12\00:12:46.59
of brillian colorful lights. The
famous face of Luna Park smiles
00:12:46.63\00:12:52.23
more brightly than ever and
the entire amusement park comes
00:12:52.27\00:12:57.41
alive with brilliant shapes,
patterns and colors. The giant
00:12:57.44\00:13:02.08
ferris wheel becomes an
explosion of color and light to
00:13:02.11\00:13:07.58
music as it turns with over 3000
individual LED lights flashing
00:13:07.62\00:13:12.52
and dramatically changing color.
It's the only Vivid installation
00:13:12.55\00:13:17.33
you can actually ride. It's all
action and light at Luna Park
00:13:17.36\00:13:22.66
where visitors are immersed
in a world of light and get a
00:13:22.70\00:13:26.87
birdseye view of Vivid Sidney
from 35 meters up in the sky.
00:13:26.90\00:13:31.81
Our final stop is Vivid Sydney's
wildest precinct, Taronga Zoo.
00:13:31.84\00:13:39.01
Here there's a shining light
on the wonder's of wildlife with
00:13:39.05\00:13:44.75
a spectacular display of light
sculptures including echidnas,
00:13:44.79\00:13:50.13
tigers, elephants, gorillas,
crocodiles, turtles, frogs,
00:13:50.16\00:13:56.46
birds and sharks. The zoo is
located on the shores of Sydney
00:13:56.50\00:14:01.27
Harbor and offers superb views
of the city skyline. The zoo is
00:14:01.30\00:14:06.98
home to over 2600 animals on
about 30 hectares, making it one
00:14:07.01\00:14:12.38
of the largest of its
kind. Taronga Zoo has about 340
00:14:12.41\00:14:18.95
different species of animals and
many of them are depicted here
00:14:18.99\00:14:22.99
in the brilliant installations
and light sculptures. Each of
00:14:23.02\00:14:27.76
these incredible creations tells
a fascinating conservation story
00:14:27.80\00:14:32.90
about these beautiful animals
and the importance of caring for
00:14:32.93\00:14:37.81
them and protecting them. During
Vivid Sydney people from around
00:14:37.84\00:14:42.64
the world come here to stare
at this dazzing array of lights.
00:14:42.68\00:14:47.62
Architecture becomes a form
of art. People focus intently.
00:14:47.65\00:14:53.09
these colorful Vivid Sydney
lights have a huge impact and
00:14:53.12\00:14:58.73
seem to transform the city.
They transform it from being
00:14:58.76\00:15:03.23
just dark and drab into
something of great beauty. The
00:15:03.26\00:15:08.04
light brings the city to life.
But there's another Light, an
00:15:08.07\00:15:15.18
even greater light that brings
change, that brings life, a
00:15:15.21\00:15:19.38
light that literally transforms
people's lives. A light that can
00:15:19.41\00:15:23.92
turn dark and drab lives into
something of great beauty, the
00:15:23.95\00:15:29.29
Light of the World, Jesus Christ
Throughout the scriptures, Jesus
00:15:29.32\00:15:36.20
is compared to light. He is
the ultimate source of light and
00:15:36.23\00:15:39.90
life. He brings true happiness
in this life and helps us find
00:15:39.93\00:15:44.71
true joy and hope. He literally
lights up our lives. Here's what
00:15:44.74\00:15:50.78
Jesus said in John
chapter 8 and verse 12:
00:15:50.81\00:15:54.55
Just like Vivid Sydney lights
up the city and turns it into
00:16:09.36\00:16:13.50
something of beauty, so
Jesus can light up our lives and
00:16:13.54\00:16:19.64
transform us into something of
great beauty and value. And in a
00:16:19.67\00:16:23.08
sense, it all begins by this:
Looking. Our lives can change
00:16:23.11\00:16:28.58
our lives can be transformed
when we simply focus on Jesus
00:16:28.62\00:16:33.46
Christ the Light of the World.
We look at all kinds of things
00:16:33.49\00:16:37.79
in this life of course. The
media throws out images that
00:16:37.83\00:16:42.10
grab our attention. But what
matters is what we concentrate
00:16:42.13\00:16:46.74
on, what we value. Here's what
Jesus Him- self said in Matthew
00:16:46.77\00:16:50.97
chapter 6 verses 21 to 23:
00:16:51.01\00:16:55.01
In a sense faith is simply about
what our eyes are looking at and
00:17:13.63\00:17:17.63
taking in and that makes a big
difference. And do you want to
00:17:17.67\00:17:22.84
something clear that you
can look at? The gospels in the
00:17:22.87\00:17:26.51
Bible; the light of Jesus laid
out because really taking in
00:17:26.54\00:17:32.55
that life creates faith, a faith
perspective that transforms that
00:17:32.58\00:17:39.02
brings light,
hope and happiness.
00:17:39.05\00:17:41.52
Yes, there's all kinds of
darkness in this world. You have
00:17:56.20\00:18:00.24
troubles, right? You have
obstacles and there may be times
00:18:00.28\00:18:05.01
when you just can't seem
to overcome the darkness. But
00:18:05.05\00:18:09.72
there's Someone who definitely
can. Please notice what Jesus
00:18:09.75\00:18:14.36
said in John
chapter 12 and verse 45:
00:18:14.39\00:18:18.83
There you have it. We may feel
that we're in a dark place in
00:18:27.37\00:18:32.47
our lives. We may feel we're in
a hopeless situation. But when
00:18:32.51\00:18:38.05
we begin to focus on the Light
of the world a transformation
00:18:38.08\00:18:43.02
begins. Suddenly putting our
eyes on the Light that shines in
00:18:43.05\00:18:47.79
darkness we begin experiencing
life to the full. We find
00:18:47.82\00:18:52.79
happiness and peace. During
Vivid Sydney two-and-a-half
00:18:52.83\00:18:57.70
million people come here to
experience and look at these
00:18:57.73\00:19:02.20
spectacular and dazzling lights.
They focus intently on these
00:19:02.24\00:19:06.47
lights that transform this city.
Well focusing on the Light of
00:19:06.51\00:19:11.48
the world can have an even
greater impact. Placing you eyes
00:19:11.51\00:19:16.42
and your faith in the life of
Jesus Christ takes people to an
00:19:16.45\00:19:20.69
even higher life than
they can ever imagine. So, yes,
00:19:20.72\00:19:25.63
transformation starts with this
one thing, what we focus on. And
00:19:25.66\00:19:31.43
then there's the next step. You
find it here in the Bible book
00:19:31.47\00:19:34.94
of I John chapter 1 and verse 7:
00:19:34.97\00:19:37.94
After you see the Light, you
walk in the Light. That is, you
00:19:50.99\00:19:56.93
respond to this remarkable Life
of Jesus Christ. You're not just
00:19:56.96\00:20:01.73
passive, you're not just sitting
on a sofa reading a gospel,
00:20:01.76\00:20:06.00
reading the good news about
Jesus in the Bible, nodding and
00:20:06.03\00:20:09.64
then putting it away. No,
you take it with you. In those
00:20:09.67\00:20:16.41
gospels, there are going to be
commands that strike you. There
00:20:16.44\00:20:20.12
are going to be exortations
that lift you up. Well make
00:20:20.15\00:20:24.62
those a goal. Pray that you'll
be able to express those truths
00:20:24.65\00:20:28.82
in some way. You notice
something like that here in
00:20:28.86\00:20:32.89
Vivid Sydney. People walk around
to really take in these dazzling
00:20:32.93\00:20:37.57
scenes. They move closer.
They absorb. What's more they're
00:20:37.60\00:20:43.41
almost always interacting
with friends, talking about what
00:20:43.44\00:20:47.58
they're taking in. Yes, these
visitors are compelled in a way
00:20:47.61\00:20:52.95
to express how these flashing
lights strike them and that's
00:20:52.98\00:20:58.09
how the Light of the world
transforms us. The second step
00:20:58.12\00:21:03.02
is about expressing it in
some way. We all have different
00:21:03.06\00:21:06.86
gifts. We all have different
ways we can expresss the good
00:21:06.90\00:21:11.37
life that Christ lays down. But
the point is to respond, to walk
00:21:11.40\00:21:17.97
to move forward with the
principle that Christ's Spirit
00:21:18.01\00:21:21.08
convicts you about. Here's
what the apostle Paul says in
00:21:21.11\00:21:24.65
Ephesians
chapter 5 verses 8 and 9:
00:21:24.68\00:21:28.38
The sun's rays create an
incredible variety of fruit.
00:21:42.30\00:21:46.84
There are blueberries in the
bushes, apples, nectarines and
00:21:46.87\00:21:51.11
mangos in the trees. Opening
ourselves to God's Light can
00:21:51.14\00:21:56.04
bear abundant fruits as well.
God creates with Light. God can
00:21:56.08\00:22:02.45
use every act to work good
out of evil, redemption out of
00:22:02.48\00:22:07.66
calamity. He's a Rembrandt
coloring the world. Flowers are
00:22:07.69\00:22:12.93
poking up through the mud.
Rainbows are flashing across
00:22:12.96\00:22:18.23
gray skies. That Light of the
world, Jesus Christ, can have
00:22:18.27\00:22:22.54
such an impact on each one of
us. Even the most hopeless lives
00:22:22.57\00:22:27.58
can be propelled so high up. We
can be optimistic. We can look
00:22:27.61\00:22:33.35
forward to a new beginning.
Here's how the apostle Paul puts
00:22:33.38\00:22:37.22
it in Romans
chapter 13 and verse 12:
00:22:37.25\00:22:40.72
That Light of the world can
become armor. That means it can
00:22:51.93\00:22:58.27
become what strengthens us and
protects us no matter what has
00:22:58.31\00:23:03.01
pushed us down before. I invite
you to consider this. The city
00:23:03.04\00:23:08.65
of Sydney takes on such a
dramatic new life with those
00:23:08.68\00:23:12.82
colorful flashes. It becomes
Vivid Sydney. People experience
00:23:12.85\00:23:18.86
the metropolis in an entirely
new way. And a genuinely new
00:23:18.89\00:23:24.90
Light, a real transformation
comes with Jesus Christ, the
00:23:24.93\00:23:30.21
Light of the world. The impact
is there. We must simply focus
00:23:30.24\00:23:35.61
our eyes, place our faith,
absorb that Light and then walk
00:23:35.64\00:23:39.61
with it. Express it in some
way. Your life will be so much
00:23:39.65\00:23:45.25
brighter, so much more colorful
when you absorb this gracioius
00:23:45.29\00:23:49.79
Savior and Friend. Why not
decide to invite him into your
00:23:49.82\00:23:53.80
life right now as we pray.
00:23:53.83\00:23:59.00
Dear Father, what a privilege
it is to really focus on this
00:23:59.03\00:24:03.71
Light of the world in the
gospels. Help us to really see
00:24:03.74\00:24:07.51
this Man. Really
take in who He is.
00:24:07.54\00:24:10.78
Build up our faith and
enable us to move forward
00:24:10.81\00:24:14.82
to express that light through
the gift that You will give us.
00:24:14.85\00:24:19.45
in Jesus name we pray. Amen.
00:24:19.49\00:24:23.29

brilliant color. The
city becomes a wonderland of
00:24:59.53\00:25:04.00
light-art and in a sense points
us to the great source of light
00:25:04.03\00:25:08.34
and life, Jesus Christ.
00:25:08.37\00:25:10.54

every tear from their eyes.

there shall be no more pain,
