Molecularium: A
magical, musical adventure into molecules.
About the Show
The Molecularium™ is a state-of-the-art computer generated
animation for digital dome theaters that makes molecular science
fun. The creators have integrated advanced scientific simulations
into a groundbreaking immersive cartoon with kid-friendly characters
to introduce young people to the world of atoms and molecules.
Computer rendering accurate representations of millions and millions
of atoms is no small technological feat. Special software had to
be written to import accurate simulation data from scientific researchers
into high-end computer animation programs, that could then be integrated
with the computer generated characters and story.
Add to this the complexity of composing the entire show to be
projected on the curved surface of a 210 degree dome theater, and
you will begin to understand what an amazing accomplishment this
show is.
The project has brought together a team of researchers, artists,
museum curators and educators, technology designers, musicians,
performers, elementary school teachers, students, and professors
to create a truly unique experience.
About Digital Domes
Digital dome theater technology is the ultimate experience in
immersive entertainment, using a spherical screen to wrap the audience
in high definition imagery. A state-of-the-art spatial surround
sound system moves sounds around the dome, enhancing the sense
of motion and belief.
Molecularium™ is available for digital
domes large and small all across the country and around the world.
