It starts with a simple question. It always does. And it also always seems to come from

the considering mind of a child.

As with many questions, this too will transport us on a virtual journey of discovery.Not only will it take us to find the answers but it will allow us to experience them in a very unique way.

How would we best explain to our children a species after that species has gone? What do whales and dolphins do for us? How are our lives enhanced and linked to these amazing animals?

Walking up to a blue sphere exhibit, you see holographic images appearing, as if, magically in front of you. On one projection is the interaction between a mother and her child as she asks this simple question. “Mommy... What were whales and dolphins like?”. Appearing as if they are coming from the not so distant future, the mother begins to explain why whales and dolphins are no more. The CETACEA exhibit is the explanation from the mother to her daughter as she takes us all on a journey to discover the answer.

Uniquely presented through an expression of interpretive, audio visual art. CETACEA will provide viewers experiences of how whales and dolphins live in an acoustic, water world.

Presented on large scale HD projections and state of the art, 3D sound immersion technology, CETACEA will lead the audience through a creative series of components telling the stories of whales and dolphins, how they live and how they enhance the human experience. The entire exhibit will go directly to communities serving as a center for learning, transcending us to a greater understanding about whales and dolphins, how they live and how we can celebrate their existence before it is too late.

This is CETACEA.... it is the answer before the question is asked.

Mommy....

What were whales like?
