A SURREAL TRIP THROUGH AN IMMERSIVE FOREST OF MEMORIES
- 2021 | Denver
Meow Wolf invited Moment Factory to dream up Perplexiplex, an interactive space that transforms its live performance venue into an immersive discovery experience
Wedged at the offramp to downtown Denver, Meow Wolf’s third and largest permanent art exhibition, Convergence Station, is the entertainment collective’s most ambitious venture yet, featuring 79 installations by more than 110 local artists alongside an interactive anchor experience by Moment Factory in its live performance venue.

Projections mapped onto the floor and surrounding walls transform a black-and-white forest mural created by New Mexico artist Nate Gutierrez into a flourishing interactive ecosystem. As guests first approach, it’s as if fungus germinates and releases spores they can interact with, followed by a reactive digital forest made of pixels and glitches. Neon draws guests into the next scene like characters in a surreal arboretum. As the forest gradually fills with swathes of colour, the final act entices visitors to splash digital brushstrokes across the room, almost like a life-size paint by numbers. Intuitive visual cues and an ambient score by Sante Fe musician Cole Bee Wilson pull guests into the supernatural world and invite them to trigger enhanced effects. Underpinning the experience, innovative software developed by Moment Factory’s R&D team processes users’ actions and positions from simultaneous tracking systems around the space., Museums Cultural Institutions, Digital Artwork, Immersive Experiences, Immersive Exhibits, Interactivity Gamification, Visual Content Creation Production
