Planet City is an internationally acclaimed multiformat research-based body of work by Liam Young that includes a short film, a VR experience, a book, and a physical exhibition. Planet City is based on the creation story of an imaginary future city of 10 billion people, the entire population of earth, where we have surrendered the remaining world to a global wilderness.
The LED Pulse adaptation of a chapter from the Planet City VR experience, first presented at Tribeca Festival 2022, revisits a multicultural festival from the original story of the city narrated by a young climate activist, one its first citizens. The experience is simultaneously an extraordinary tale of tomorrow and an urgent examination of the environmental questions facing us today.
