A “404” error denotes the uncharted, the unreachable, a missing place. Drawing inspiration from this ethereal notion of lost Internet pages, “Gate 404” is an audio-visual journey into the seldom-explored terrains of the subconscious, subtly and elegantly infused with aesthetic elements from aviation.

This experience invites guests to venture into an ambient space where the nostalgic sensations of airports meld with the allure of psychedelic artistry. By weaving imagery from aviation with modern generative computer art, “Gate 404” serves as an ethereal gateway to memories, dreams, and reflections.

The soundtrack features a custom ambient backdrop with deep echoes of runway hustle, distant plane engines, and the drones of industrial airport machinery, combined with melodic cadences of experimental sound designs and healing instruments. Creating a sensory envelopment, “Gate 404” offers an escape, a portal where the past’s tangible memories meet the infinite explorations of the mind’s eye.
