Outernet London will soon host a poignant and powerful new show: Antarctica: The Melting Silence will arrive on its giant floor-to-ceiling screens next week. This groundbreaking film will be one of the most ambitious environmental immersive projects in history, highlighting the beauty and fragility of Antarctica, one of the last great wildernesses on our planet.
Directed by Alex Wolf, this immersive experience blends cutting-edge technology with environmental activism, transporting Londoners directly to the heart of the endangered Antarctic. The creation of the film has been supported by many leading environmental organizations, and the launch at Outernet will mark the beginning of a year-long campaign.
The innovative screen will display a revolutionary resolution of 25,000 pixels, turning Outernet’s unique immersive screens into vast wild expanses of Antarctica. The experience will allow visitors to witness up close the continent’s fragile beauty while spotlighting the urgent threats it faces, such as climate change, industrial fishing, and pollution.
Alex Wolf, the film’s director, said: « This is a beautiful, moving, and deeply meaningful project for me – a way to transform attention into action, and technology into something more human. It is also a profound artistic and personal statement: The beauty of Antarctica is fragile, just like our future. This project is our way of saying we still have time to act and protect Antarctica. »
Philip O’Ferrall, CEO of Outernet, said: « Outernet was designed to serve as a backdrop for the most important stories of our time. Antarctica: The Melting Silence perfectly demonstrates how our immersive technology can create unprecedented emotional connections between the audience and urgent global issues. By transforming our digital canvas into the wild nature of Antarctica, we are not just showcasing technological innovation; we are contributing to inspire meaningful actions for one of the planet’s most critical ecosystems. This collaboration with leading environmental organizations underscores Outernet’s commitment to using its platform to tell powerful stories that drive positive change. »
