Dan Carlin - The War Remains
Kansas City, MO

I have been anxiously wanting to see Dan Carlin's new exhibit since the beginning of 2022. Try as I did, I was unable to do so earlier in the year and I wasn't about to suffer the perils of SXSW to see the Austin installation. With the exhibit just about to close, the pressure was on to see it. Thankfully I finally got to.

It's fairly short, but an absolutely amazing augmented reality experience. It attempts to showcase what fighting from a World War I trench would have looked like for the Allies point of view (though both sides suffered roughly the same fate).

The entire thing is narrated by the beloved Dan Carlin. As I kind of expected, he uses a lot of the same narration that he's used over the years - the exhibit opens with his grandfather's well-known line about "walking a mile in someone else's moccasins."

I noticed that he also specifically used various parts from his rather famous WWI podcast series - "A Blueprint for Armageddon."

It's pretty wonderful. DG and I also checked out the WWI tower - the first time I'd ever been up there despite all my time in Kansas City in the past.
