We live in a connected world. This stunning show produced by our in-house team of visualization experts will have you diving with sea otters and exploring the life forms hidden within soil.
About the Show (Grades K-12)
Duration: Approximately 35 minutes
Living networks connect and support life forms large and small—from colonies of tiny microbes and populations of massive whales to ever-expanding human societies.
Discover what it means to live in today’s connected world, where biological networks intersect with those we have built. Through stunning visualizations of the natural world, dive below the ocean’s surface to explore the dynamic relationships found in kelp forest ecosystems, dig beneath the forest floor to see how Earth’s tallest trees rely on tiny fungi to survive, and journey to new heights to witness the intricate intersection between human and ecological networks.
