The Archives of the Deep Now have been recreated by Submersive from instructions left behind by The Institute of Visionary History before they mysteriously vanished in 1997. Each box from The Archives contains an experiment designed to conjure visions of the past in order to ask a specific question. For Episode One, we join Harriet Tubman at a crucial juncture to ask “How does one prevent catastrophe?” Future episodes will appear in October and November. The installation will also become available for guests to explore on their own later in the year.
Created for an audience of 5–6 at time, each 30–45+ minute experience is designed to be a short but satisfying bite of immersive theatre. Each episode will be cumulative but are also meant to stand alone. Audiences will be guided with a high level of close-up interaction and some amount of agency. There is a deep, evolving back story for those who look for it, but it is ignorable for those who do not.
