100 years ago, an adventurer was on a mission to save his men from the ice of Antarctica. Today, we must save the ice from us.
In 1914, in one of the last great expeditions of the heroic age of Antarctic exploration, Sir Ernest Shackleton set out on one of the era’s most ambitious and harrowing journeys: to cross Antarctica coast-to-coast.
Against stellar competition, Tim Jarvis AM and his collaborators at Monkeystack and Shackleton Epic Expedition have scored big by winning ‘Best Virtual Reality’ at the recent LA Film Awards.
Equal parts catastrophic and transcendent, ‘Thin Ice VR’ presents a uniquely affecting account of how humanity asserts its will over the extremes of nature — often in unforeseen ways.
Based here in leafy Glenside, Monkeystack is a digital agency that makes animation, experiences and games that entertain, engage and educate.
Thin Ice VR is returning to the South Australian Museum for Night Lab: The Snow Ball – A Winter Wonderland.
6pm – 10pm, Friday 29 July. Ages 18+
