Apotheosis

The Experience

The Apotheosis Experience aims to allow guests to simulate and broadcast a version of themselves that is unconstrained by the limits of time, space, physical reality, society, economics, politics or power. We ask "what would you do if you could do anything--be anyone--have infinite resources at your disposal? would you be content with your power? Would you find peace through your accomplishments? How much is enough?"

The situation is imagined, simulated and recorded. You take the picture, make the movie, write the memoir, get the tee-shirt, and post it online for all your friends to see--or try the global social media simulator! Be Adored by millions--reviled for generations--regarded as the savior of humanity-- hailed as a living saint-- fawned over by millions of followers--cancelled by an angry mob--burned at the stake as a martyr or as a villain.

Then reflect on your simulation in the Narcissus Chamber*... if you dare.

*The Apotheoun foundation and any and all its parent organizations, subsidiaries, affiliates, volunteers, and governing bodies accept no liability or financial responsibility for medical or psychological ailments or other damages incurred by exposure to the narcissus chamber or any third party use or replication of the technology therein.
