I’m spending my day at CTV, celebrating James Cameron and Joe Macinnis’ upcoming event in Ottawa. The two will share an intimate talk about their friendship and work in deep sea exploration on Tuesday. It will be televised live on CTV and CP24 from 3-4pm on July 18. If you want to see James Cameron’s sub, it is part of our PRESSURE exhibit at @50Sussex the headquarters of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. The exhibit is open from Tues-Sat from noon to 5pm and is free. Beyond the exploration of the deep, the exhibit also features freshwater systems, and some of my work in the Ottawa River caves. Visitors can trace their connections to the ocean on a giant floor map enlivened with AR technology.
