Production notes

This is a fixed public artwork, not an ad medium, so content is curated rather than commissioned, and imagery is timed to the fountain's water-spout gag.
Two towers, each 50 ft tall x 23 ft wide x 16 ft deep, facing a 232 ft granite reflecting pool.
Inward LED video face reported at ~24 x 49 ft per tower (press figure, not owner-confirmed).
LED screens supplied by Barco; ~264,480 LED points per tower cited by Wikipedia (not an owner source).
Each face is shown ~5 minutes; water appears to spout from the mouth.
Video-wall pixel resolution, pixel pitch, frame rate, and codec are not published; no bookable ad spec exists.
