Visualizing ancient astronomy
The town of Nebra in Germany is famous for its Sky Disk - a bronze disk with astronomical symbols dating back to the early Bronze Age. The Arche Nebra, features a show focused on archaeological finds associated with early solar or lunar observations. These include Stonehenge,
the Pömmelte Ring Sanctuary, the Goseck Circle
and the Nebra Sky Disk.
Project led and executed by
Jakob Laugs
for
A new show for the Sky Disk
Based on an existing fulldome show, this film features 3D scenes by Jonas Laugs und painted panoramas by Kristina Gehrmann.
I was lucky enough to be involved in two 3D scenes showing Stonehenge and the Pömmelte Ring Sanctuary.
If you would like to see the exclusive 24-minute show as well as the rest of the exhibition to learn more about the Sky Disk and the rich history behind it, visit Arche Nebra.
