4. Invisible Worlds Immersive Experience
“Enter the venue at any point in the story to begin your journey through Invisible Worlds, an immersive experience based on authentic scientific data visualized like never before,” says the Natural History Museum. One landscape flows into another beneath a mirrored ceiling. Brazil’s lush rainforest morphs into a migration of jellyfish and microscopic plankton. An immense humpback whale swims through the algae and suddenly we’re in New York City, admiring the skyline that includes the World Trade Center’s twin towers in the distance.
Designed by Tamschick Media + Space with Boris Micka Associates, the 12-minute loop of Invisible Worlds seeks to provide an “emotional experience” of the unseen, moving from the genome through jellyfish to a dragonfly’s neuronal network, to demonstrate the connections among all ecosystems.
