CARLES CASTAÑO [“Á”1653 “gora” 23035]

[“Á”1653 “gora” 23035] is an immersive and interactive Mixed Reality installation that presents a rediscovery of a forgotten experiment on planet Earth. Amidst forests that have grown over the ruins of an extinct civilisation, luminous intelligences guard a secret buried in the planet’s memory. Fragments of a shattered past emerge from the darkness, waiting to be activated and rediscovered. Each memory reveals a new question; each decision activates a new archive of ancestral memory.

Every step brings you closer to a truth that perhaps should never have been discovered.

What really happened on Earth? What became of the beings who once ruled the planet? And, after all, who inherited the future?
