3D Immersive

The quest to fly like a bird, unaided by machine has captured the imagination of humankind as long as we have been gazing upon the world’s natural flyers. Wingsuit flight provides us with the chance to experience what it would be like to fly like a bird. Along with the world’s top wingsuit flyers and with the help of ever evolving wingsuit technology, audiences will be able to take flight from the highest points in Europe, soar over landscapes in Moab that resemble Mars, fly above the Great Barrier Reef and then land on it. From 18000 feet, we will also dive off into principles of flight, aerodynamics and materials engineering.

Our ongoing quest to explore and come to terms with the Arctic is presented in the context of the crucial role that ice plays in the north.  Ice is to the Arctic as trees are to the rainforest.  It is the underpinning of the ecosystem, the foundation upon which the animals and plants of the north depend.  We meet an ice scientist who lives and works with the Inuit, blending their traditional knowledge with modern scientific methods.  We travel to the town of Churchill, Manitoba, polar bear capital of the world, where the people have turned a feared predator into a revered asset.  We join an expedition of beluga biologists who are monitoring the migration patters of these ice dependent whales.  Underlying all these stories are the changes that are quickly overtaking the people and animals who have adapted over thousands of years to this land of ice and snow.
