ICE-TIME 360 is a 360°-cinema/VR recreation of the original ICE-TIME mediascape. In ICE-TIME, six projections and a surround soundscape occupy a room-sized environment of translucent screens. Crystalline collages form as visitors move within the space. The hexagonal structures of ice molecules and 4D tesseract projections are formal elements in the visual design of the film and the installation. The 3D soundscape is composed of field recordings of live ice, creating an immersive audio environment that circulates like a solid-fluid while the video imagery combines digital 4K video recorded in Greenland and Antarctica with data from our scientific collaborators. The artwork creates a poetic-scientific portrait of ice through time‑lapse photography, micro‑photography, satellite images, and contact audio recordings.
