Comments: “It’s a very simple presentation, then it goes into an absolutely gorgeous panorama. Moving to a panorama isn’t an easy thing and they did it fluidly. The narrative they’ve built is super simple, clear and consistent. It’s hard to do time and space together and not feel like you have whiplash. Usually you have to choose, and they’ve done both. Beautiful and educational.”
