Where are we now?

The only thing about this place that makes sense is that nothing makes sense.

That's the most accurate way I can describe the interdimensional monstrosity that is Meow Wolf. A place like this can only be fully enjoyed and immersive if you don't try to understand what's going on.

I've been to 4 of the 5 (current) locations. The original in Santa Fe, despite being the smallest is easily the best and most creative. There are so many secret doors and rooms in many smaller spaces. Las Vegas is probably the worst one sadly, it was plenty creative as well but it's a lot more commercialized and not as creative with it's room layouts. Large open spaces kinda betrays what the original stood for. Grapevine was a bit of a redemption as unlike the other 2 it honors the original's legacy... a little too much, it reuses a lot of rooms from the Santa Fe location.

And then there's this one, Denver. Unfortunately it can't hold a candle to the others, just barely beating out Vegas as it has most of the same problems. Big open spaces and not being able to be fully immersed in the art at times. But it was still photogenic as you can see here, I got a reflection towards the middle of the ground and a beautiful forested area around it. I brought a lighting tool to the top as the I wanted the mushrooms to stand out more and be given more light then the bottom. There was also a crazy amount of grain. All that aside, it's alright.

There's another location in Dallas, an upcoming one in LA, and even a dark ride across the street from the Denver location in another park.
