About this world

On Serevane’s plateau, certain crystals retain vibrations received as they form. Researchers can read them, but never recover speech without interpretation and uncertainty. A sequence of signals disrupts expedition plans, leaving scientists, logisticians and residents to debate what should be published, preserved or left in silence.

Reference Core Reserve

Interior · Storehouse

Reference Core Reserve — Compartmented stores make incoming and outgoing supplies easy to check.

Discover the place

Compartmented stores make incoming and outgoing supplies easy to check. A receiving area allows inspection before storage. Polar teams study snow that preserves traces of sound.

History

Successive improvements show collective upkeep: replaced parts, widened passages and uses adjusted to residents’ needs.

To explore

Signal Antechamber

The Signal Antechamber serves as a transitional space where researchers can analyze the incoming sound vibrations recorded by the crystals. This elongated room, lined with transparent soundproof glass, allows scientists to observe their equipment without interference. The walls are embedded with glowing ice panels that gently illuminate the various analytical tools, all designed to decode the stored soundwaves while maintaining a sterile environment. High-tech monitors display real-time data, and the atmosphere is thick with the potential of discovery, as scientists huddle around workstations covered with notebooks and devices used for interpreting signals from the polar ice. A central circular table encourages collaboration, surrounded by stools made from reclaimed metal to align with the observatory's sustainability goals.

To explore

Cryo-Research Gallery

The Cryo-Research Gallery is an elongated corridor that runs parallel to the Reference Core Reserve, designed to showcase the most significant discoveries made by researchers at Serevane. Each section of the gallery features insulated glass cases containing samples of the unique ice cores, along with holographic projectors that detail their analysis and the sound vibrations preserved within them. The flooring is made from polished ice, with ambient blue lighting reflecting off its surface, creating an otherworldly, ethereal atmosphere. Various interactive stations throughout allow visitors and researchers to engage with the data, listen to reconstructed sounds, and understand the history behind each sample. The walls are adorned with photographs capturing expedition moments and breakthroughs, fostering a sense of shared achievement among the scientists. The air is crisp and invigorating, filled with the quiet hum of technology and the soft sound of distant research equipment, evoking an atmosphere of discovery and reverence for nature's secrets.

To explore

Resonance Chamber

The Resonance Chamber is an expansive, circular room located deeply within the Reference Core Reserve. Its walls are constructed from a unique blend of reinforced ice and sound-dampening materials, designed to capture and amplify the sound vibrations transferred from the stored ice samples. The ceiling is domed, featuring a skylight covered with insulated glass that allows soft, diffused illuminations from the polar twilight to flood the space. At the center, there's a state-of-the-art table equipped with advanced acoustic analysis tools, surrounded by tiered seating that accommodates small groups of researchers. The atmosphere is quiet yet charged, with murmurs of scientists discussing the nuanced reactions of their findings. The chamber is lined with interactive screens that provide real-time visualizations of sound waves and their frequencies, making it a hub for collaboration and exploration among teams. Its design encourages creativity, reflecting the collective effort to decode the secrets held within the icy depths of Serevane.
