For The Ocean Race Genova – The Grand Finale, the Innovation Village at Ocean Live Park hosted a large multimedia wave celebrating the richness of the sea and its inhabitants. Conceived and realised by KARMACHINA in collaboration with D&D International Group, the installation offers visitors an emotional dive into the Ligurian Sea, combining technology, immersion, and education about marine ecosystems and the Blue Economy.

The 15-minute immersive experience transports visitors through Ligurian marine habitats—from Posidonia seagrass meadows to deep-sea environments. 3D modelling and animation bring fish, sharks, groupers, whales, and the iconic Christ of the Abyss statue to life, creating a multisensory journey where sound and visuals converge.

Marine life and habitats are visualised through meticulous 3D animation, emphasising naturalistic movement and detail. An original soundtrack by Fernweh, derived from sea sounds, accompanies the flow of images, guiding visitors through an underwater narrative that combines discovery, wonder, and awareness of the sea’s biodiversity and the innovative solutions of the Blue Economy.
