Probably everybody knows KLCC, the Kuala Lumpur City Center, but what about BBCC, the Bukit Bintang City Center<\/a>? It is a mixed-use development on the former site of the Pudu Prison in Kuala Lumpur. The monumental entrance has been preserved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We found a parking spot in the huge Lalaport shopping center<\/a>, had a look at the iconic Merdeka 118<\/a> skyscraper, and decided to have a drink near the old prison entrance. Expensive, but the cake was delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our plan was to visit the Immersify multi-media exhibition<\/a> in The Labs<\/a>, part of the BBKL. A journey beyond imagination,<\/em> as is announced on their website. The ticket price is not cheap. RM 68 for adult Malaysians, RM 50 for me (senior discount). They use a time-slot system, but it was not busy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a fascinating experience, worth every Ringgit. We stayed more than two hours, enjoying each of the eleven exhibition halls. Visual and sound effects, we really became immersed. I will just show a few pictures from each zone, using the same names as in the folder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zone 2 Mystic Waterfall<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A thundering waterfall, where fowering trees grow and elephants emerge from the water. Absolutely breathtaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zone 7 Neon Jungle<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Another fascinating hall. The proboscis monkey jumps and shows off, The ape gets angry and destroys the glass window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zone 8 Canvas Oceania<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We stayed a long time here. You take a paper with the outline of a fish and color it as you like it. Then you scan your drawing and within a minute your fish is swimming in the tank. Aric created the fish with my name on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He made a few more drawings, one with his name and the other with his dive devil gang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Most people stayed longer here. I also did one, but I am not so creative, easy to guess which one was mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zone 10 Surreal World<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Mesmerizing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zone 11 Art Gallery<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A very unexpected ending, for me the apotheose of Immersify. Paintings of three painters were shown, as the “real” painting together with a digital tarnsformation on the surrounding walls. Combined with classical 19th century music<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What an amazing exhibition. First I thought that this exhibition would only temporarily be in KL before traveling around the world. But no, it will stay here in a building specially designed for it. A Korean concept, until now only materialised here, in KL. Malaysia Boleh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were a bit hungry, but the food in the Lalaport didn’t attract us, we went to an eatery nearby where we had nice hokkien mee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
