ICAT Playdate — When We Went In: The D-Day Experience in Light and Sound (D-Day 80th Anniversary)

September 20, 2024

The Virginia Tech Institute for Creativity, Arts, and Technology partnered with the National D-Day Memorial Foundation to create an immersive narrative display that was projected on the National D-Day Memorial during the 80th anniversary of the historic event on June 7 & 8, 2024.

Over a year in the making, the story of the men and women who lived through D-Day was retold through artfully animated archival imagery and immersive sound. Come see behind the scenes of how this one-of-a-kind project was created.
