Whatever the name, that premise is undeniably compelling. In this hotbed of interplanetary cohabitation, memories serve as both currency and the key to unlocking the story behind the women's disappearances and cause of the convergence-as do multimedia clues that reveal themselves to all of the senses. The Quantum Department of Transportation serves as the gateway to these diverse worlds: kaleidoscopic cathedrals, Corinthian catacombs, lush alien habitats, and dazzling and gritty cityscapes. Twenty-five years ago, a freak cosmic event merged four worlds from different universes, erasing the memories of all residents and spawning the mystifying disappearances of four women. Kate Russell Here's how Meow Wolf explains the story behind the new space:Ĭonvergence Station is the first stop on a quantum journey of exploration and discovery as passengers traverse new worlds, and like all Meow Wolf locations, labyrinthine mysteries beckon from its vibrant walls, portals, and wormholes. (Fortunately, the Convergence Corridor nickname once adopted by the Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce for the tech-heavy area stretching from Denver to Boulder is no longer in use.) Some might confuse the juggernaut's new moniker with Denver-based Convergence Solutions, "the most cost-effective telecom in the industry" Greenwood Village's Converge certified public accountants Convergence Architecture in Writer Square or the Convergence Multifamily Real Estate Group - though all those Colorado-based businesses (and several more) will likely see a welcome bump in traffic from confused Googlers.
It doesn't seem to match the visionary work of Denver artists Molina Speaks, the Ladies Fancywork Society or Wheelchair Sports Camp, who have given Westword compelling sneak peeks into the space.Īnd from what we hear, the rest of the space will be as jaw-droppingly cool as the name is drool-inducing.
No, it's not a co-working space, though it might sound like one. And yes, it lacks the whimsy of Meow Wolf's poetically named House of Eternal Return in Santa Fe or the sci-fi futurism of Omega Mart in Las Vegas or even the Elitch Gardens Meow Wolf ride, Kaleidoscape. And the name of the massive Mile High installation at the junction of Interstate 70 and the Colfax Viaduct? Convergence Station. Meow Wolf, the giant, Santa Fe-based immersive-art corporation that grew out of a grassroots collective, will open its Denver facility on Friday, September 17.
