Ian McLennan - The Immersive Planetarium 15

“I realized that we were going to be able to take audiences & immerse them in the universe, take them on a journey & surround them with the mystery & the beauty of the universe.”

Ian McLennan is a pioneer in the development of planetariums, museums, science centers, & other high-content public attractions. Based in Vancouver, Canada, he has shepherded attractions from the days before Imax to international fairs to today's immersive projects. He’s also music lover & a lover of his daily walks during which he captures special moments in his photographs.  I met him through Dan Neafus at Imersa in Denver, when he was being honored for his life's work in the field of planetariums, science domes & immersive environments.
