Went to VanGoghImmersion atDorchester

 I went to VanGoho Immersion at Dorchester.  I think it's a disappointment.  The first place was mostly printed paintings on cloths.  A couple displays were alright but nothing special.  The hall was quite small, we were surprised by the amount of crowd.  Like my sis said, if any of us got covid, we'll know where we got it.  All of us were wearing kn95, but who knows.  

Then onto the next show, the real immersive experience.  But that was a long long line.  We waited at least 30 minutes before entering the display halls, in which the 4 walls were covered by cinema sized screens.  There were chairs lining along the 4 walls, with a podium in the middle, and floor matts scattered all over the floor.  There were projectors shooting synchronized pictures with music on the surrounding walls and floor.  It must be the meat of the show.  Although it was grand at first, but after a while, the meaningless chants of Vincen't quotes, and wantomly displayed images with no time to really observe, it's like an orange clockwork trying to heal the mental patients.  After 10 minutes, we were out of there.  

Maybe there's another display about Vincent's last moment, but we were done.  My mom was very tired, there's no place to sit besides the projection room.  And we stood and waited 30 minutes to get into it  while standing in a very narrow and long hall way.   The whole experience was chaotic, crowded, and a very unprofessional display, almost feel like a scam.
