An outlier of the amusement park ecosystem, dark rides rely on their ability to swallow subjects in an overwhelming lack of light. In doing so, an apparatus is constructed which can precisely manipulate the senses of which humans are most dependent: inch-wide corridors transform into caverns, projections on plaster manifest as phantasmagoria, and dollar store paraphernalia resurrects itself in discordant animation. As the drones of invisible machinery resonate on tile-laden flooring, a self-guided journey embarks behind makeshift walls and car wash curtains.
