“An eye is a small price to pay for all the wisdom and memory of the nine worlds.” That’s what the Norse god Odin said as he sacrificed his eye to drink from the waters of Mímir’s Well. Using Kinect technology, Unity 3D animation and parametric speakers, we created an interactive version of Mímir’s Well that transported guests deep into the nine worlds of Norse mythology.
