Black Hole – End of Time

Venue Old Christ Church, Waterloo
Admission Donation
Start Time 18:00
End Time 20:00

Black Hole – End of Time is a large format immersive spatial light art experience. Using spectacular lasers, lighting, projections and special effects, synchronised to a striking, ear-tickling soundtrack.

Back by popular demand, Black Hole – End of Time 2022 is still the same amazing, immersive multimedia laser filled, mind-popping experience but returns with:

  • New spectacular projections
  • More immersive lighting effects
  • A blacker black hole
  • A meteorite from outer space

Discover or re-discover the story of Jim, his experiments and the black hole that blinked into existence behind his grandfather clock. Walk through time and orbit the black hole whilst it consumes your time, surrounded by stars that burst into colour, lasers in every direction, swirling white clouds at your feet and epic, kaleidoscopic projections of clocks and galaxies.

Enter space through the new star portal, a projection mapped colonnade of kaleidoscopic stars and galaxies. Walk through the spectacular cosmos and event horizon to reach a real black hole on the other side, floating in space above swirling white clouds of fog and below a sky full of colour-bursting stars and meteors.

In 2021, in just one night, their black hole consumed 6,000 minutes of your time. Whilst audiences orbited the black hole, walked on clouds and looked up to a spectrum of bursting stars, the black hole floated, motionless, but slowly eating time. And now it’s back to eat more of your time and all you’ll have left is a memory.

Visible only by an absence of light, the black hole confuses your sense of depth and space. Looking like a flat 2D disc from every angle, this floating, light-absorbing celestial object draws you in and starts to eat your time, bursting into life with lasers to a distorted and foreboding soundtrack.

Over three nights, Black Hole – End of Time will again mesmerise and enthral and if you felt like you were in Blade Runner in 2021, in 2022 you can add 2001 A Space Odyssey to the list!
