The Dimension Doors is a 2-person, 7 minute audio-visual experience that takes the participants on an ideal journey from the 0th to the 6th dimension. These dimensions are drawn from physics, and are a logical progression based on the formation of the first 4-dimensions. But this objective argumentation is made from the lens of idealism, and so the participant experiences that perception in the 1st person (which is a loose statement after dimension 5).
An infinity mirror box first greets the participants with countless versions of themselves, but as the experience develops, the portals within the doors show all of the paths that have been and never will be taken. Combining metaphysics, idealism, programmed synchronized lighting, hypnotic methods and comedy, ultimately this piece is a critique on the paradox of free-will, and how an argument can be made using physics and philosophy that we do after all, have a choice.
