Immersive Experience at Singapore Bicentennial Exhibition at Fort Canning

28/5/2019

Immersive experience!
Thank you Singapore Bicentennial Office for the invitation to the Special Preview (for project partners & stakeholders) of the 'Singapore Bicentennial Experience'.
A multi-sensory experience! The Time Traveller exhibition segment brought us back to some 700 years ago when Singapura was founded by Sang Nila Utama.
Going through 5 Acts, visitors will walk and immerse the experience of different eras. This is not just another exhibition, but an experiential one!
Be prepared to be emotionally-charged as well! And also, there is a segment with artificial rain in the exhibition you have got to experience. Dont worry, umbrellas are provided!
What I have shared here is just the tip of the ice-berg. You have to experience it yourself!
It is indeed a project by Singaporeans to Singaporeans.
On a personal note, I am really grateful to have contributed a small part in the Sg Bicentennial through the series of workshops in 2018, equipping the volunteers with story documentations skills.
Working with the Singapore Bicentennial team reminded me of my previous "career incarnations". Most of the team members were my colleagues and it was like a reunion of sorts!
Congratulations to the team at Singapore Bicentennial.
May this project showcases the rich history of Singapore and also eye-openers to the sceptics about Singapore history. A tiny island that had progressed even before 1819; something we, as Singaporeans are to be proud of, and a good reflection for us to progress further moving forward.
