“Abyss” is DoubleMe Inc’s first mixed reality multisensory exhibition. Powered by TwinWorld, we will transport you down into the deep blue sea, where you’ll experience layers of healing alongside luminous jellyfish, sea animals and the majestic humpback whale. The sight of this mammoth creature brings a sense of peace and tranquility as you hear it sing to the sounds of the ocean.
Inspired by the Blue Mind Theory, which states one’s proximity to water for at least 10 minutes a day makes for happier, healthier and more relaxed moods. Walking in a blue space including aquariums also alters the brain’s positive neural pathways, improving one’s creativity. The theory garnered traction after marine biologist Wallace Nichols published a book titled, “Blue Mind - The Surprising Science That Shows How Being Near, In, On, or Under Water Can Make You Happier, Healthier, More Connected, and Better at What You Do.”
Other known health benefits include:
- Elevated and sustained happiness
- Antidote to the overly anxious mind
- Lowers stress and heart rate - Boost creativity and problem-solving abilities
- Enhance quality of conversations
- Help treat or manage post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
All of your five senses will be ignited as you venture into the depths of the ”Abyss.” Experience the smells and textures of the ocean, ending your journey with a tasting experience as you reminisce this deep blue sea adventure.
