An excellent educational instrument, Discovery Planetario travels around the world and attracts a diverse public, providing intensive visual and auditory experiences. In comparison with the flat screen of a cinema hall, the cupola format of a planetarium occupies 100% of the visual field of the spectator who is thus completely enthralled by the images, the colors, and the sounds of the projections which feature trips to the human body, space missions, the evolution of the first unicellular beings, Galileo’s experiments, and celestial phenomena.
University Square
Five actors, 1.000 liters of polyurethane foam, music, and two hours of show. Completely dressed up in white, five unusual characters are entrapped in five separated cages. Their costumes start to send out foam of various colors, which slowly grows and solidifies, making the characters immobile in their cages. It is up to the public whether they want to help them get free or not.
