IO is a multi-experience exhibition that explores marine narratives and learning areas that are typically under-explored in mainstream ocean literacy
Critical Distance is a shared Immersive experience which uses groundbreaking mixed reality (MR) to bring audiences into the world of Southern Resident orcas in North America's Pacific Northwest.
Seen through the eyes of Ki - an eight-year-old orca who carries the expectations and future of her pod on her shoulders.
Experience how Ki communicates with her family through echolocation, and together they face the daily perils threatening the famous 'J-Pod'.
Critical Distance ends with hope, equipping audiences with a mission to help protect Ki, her family, and her home in the sea.
