Floodplains.XYZ is a virtual 3D experience from new media artist Michelle Brown about the impact of dramatic weather events caused by climate change. The platform lets the visitor experience the panic and rush to grab treasured belongings before their Queenslander themed house is flooded. The viewer can collect these items as NFTs, and try reach safety before the timer runs out. It's a digital, virtual world simulation in 3D, mirroring scenes seen recently during floods in Australia and New Zealand. There's definite aspects of the sublime — the terrifying power of nature and the risk of losing everything. Well worth checking out
I saved some items and escaped the house before it flooded -- great project by @Thebadlament & @violet_forest. It is both scary & sad that this is reality for many
