SUPERREAL

"At times, it is almost impossible to tell where the architecture ends and the animations begins—which is of course the point. Where does reality end and the imagination begin?" Artnet.com

Description

SuperReal is an immersive experience by Moment Factory which explores our digital dreams. TWF was engaged to develop the audience journey of SuperReal. We created interactive installations, scenic elements, and consulted on creative direction to prime and pull the audience into the experience--making it rich and complete. To begin, we softened the audience by contrasting the chaotic NYC streets with a welcoming lobby with tropical plants, bird sounds, and playful Spun Chairs. A large reflective SuperReal sign invites the audience to push into the experience. A tactile interactive installation of suspended tubes and sparkling lights subtly engages the audience, inviting them to relax, play, and have fun. An alcove filled with an infinity of lasers offers a moment of wonder. Entering the main hall, your eye is drawn to projections on the 40’ walls but you must first find your way through a dark curved maze which creates mystery, anticipation, and intrigue. By the time you discover the main event (mirrored floor reflecting 3d video) you are already buzzing, primed to love whatever comes next. SuperReal overjoyed thousands with many more to come.
