Leave your carbon-based body behind. Let your surroundings guide your thoughts. Light cycles simulate cosmic cycles. Systems blink on. As with fractals, the closer we look the more detail we see. Every tiny fragment of swirling debris holds a place for our imaginations.

Heavenly Bodies is a steel and resin illuminated rocket planetarium. An interactive experience that includes a small space to explore as well as digital sound design by Electric Stardust: Robb Lunzmann and Jon Negrych. Its cosmic patterns seek to connect us to our origins.

Mystery, Connection, Awe, Beauty, and Disequilibrium. Scientists tell us that everything our physical bodies is made of was once a star. This concept illuminates the connections between ourselves and our environments. We are but a small part of a huge system. This installation will provide an opportunity to connect three dimensionally with our origins; it possesses the alchemic visual power to transport the viewer back into their heavenly bodies; to become “star stuff”. Unlike planetariums which focus on the practical, this structure’s details emulate the curved lines of a rocket, enticing spectators inside with its potential for travel.

The creation of Heavenly Bodies was funded by a B.C. Arts Council Major Project Grant. Executed here in Nakusp in a secret lab called Kate Tupper Studio Many friend's hands contributed to making this space ship fully operational. And this time it actually was 'rocket science'
