Baron Von Opperbean and the River of Time (BVO) is an immersive adventure game experience -- like an open-world video game in a real-world space, combining physical set pieces, worlds and environments with game-engine-technology, projection-mapping and "windows" (screens) that extend the experience. When complete, BVO will be the first immersive experience of its scale in the Mid-South.
BVO is being built inside the former site of Mud Islands river museum, a 33,000-sq-ft, immersive-by-design space whose floorplan snakes back on itself multiple times and includes two full-sized boats, which will be repurposed as part of the redevelopment.
BVO’s experience is a rich narrative with character development, actors in costume, immersive visuals, holographic AI characters, and interactive depth.

Matter Health is on a mission to bring high-quality preventative and primary care closer to our patients’ homes, where they need it most. Our world-class, interdisciplinary teams of medical care specialists are devoted to building long term provider/patient relationships and offering the highest quality care to the communities we serve.
The barriers to holistic healthcare are plentiful, specifically in the senior community. A lack of easy, immediate access to care creates a high-cost strain on the healthcare system. We exist to serve these individuals most in need of quality healthcare and present a location-based health solution for the system at large.
