    What links Kickstarter, alternate dimensions, George R. R. Martin and the image you see above? House of Eternal Return, a new art exhibition in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In House of Eternal Return, visitors explore a 20,000 square foot space, created by Meow Wolf, an arts production company focused on interactive multimedia experiences. The many environments within can be visited in any order, and tell a larger story. Created by dozens of artists, together they form a narrative of a family in the midst of a dimensional rift, and explores the theory of the multiverse through wormholes linking the exhibits. Installations are varied and interactive; one has a full-scale mastodon skeleton with musical ribs and light-up mushrooms, while many play with sound and visuals in interesting ways.
