How can we illustrate the evolution of the planet and the various life forms that have walked it through a non-exhaustive selection of species, places and periods? This is the challenge taken up by Life Chronicles, the immersive expedition designed in virtual reality to let a series of little stories tell the biggest one of all, that of life itself. Thus, the selection has focused on several paleo-landscapes, from the Archean period (3.5 billion years ago) to the present day, including the rise of animal life in the Cambrian (520 million years ago), the great forests of the Carboniferous (300 million years ago), the great dinosaurs of the Cretaceous (67 million years ago) and the rise of the humans (between 100,000 and 60,000 years ago).
