Omega Mart appears to be just a regular supermarket run by a corporation known as DramCorp. But it's story goes far deeper than that. I sit down with Vince Kadlubek, Founder of an art installation team known as Meow Wolf. They have been breaking the norm of the art industry this past decade with incredibly immersive storytelling seeped into their products such as, House Of Eternal Return & Omega Mart.
Follow me down one of the most exciting rabbit holes I've possibly ever come across on this channel.
Omega Mart appreciates you.

Omega Mart is the Real Reality, The 2012 End of the Real World was Real. The Trump- Biden phenomenon is Devils of Lovecraft- creatures, The Old Ones, Frog-Things Making Horrorble Fluting Blood Sucking Monsters REALITY is Omega Mart in Santee opened After The End of the World according to The 2012 phenomenon which was a range of eschatological beliefs that cataclysmic or transformative events would occur on or around 21 December 2012. This means Omega Mart is Reality, and we are in a Dead World 2012 Simulated Non-Reality! I live in San Francisco, I can ride the Bus to Los Vegas and enter Real reality in Omega Mart. COOL!
It's like if Cthulu just wanted to have a normal life with a normal job instead of being an eldrich horror.

They made an entire alternate reality PLAYGROUND. I love this.

If you look to the left and continue to the end of the corridor, there is a technician's desk that has a lot of paper work. one of the documents on his computer and in his paperwork is a configuration to adjust the S***** Door to "unlock" it. only then will you find him.

My sister was fully not paying attention when my family made plans to go to Omega Mart so when we arrived she thought it was an actual supermarket. My girl had absolutely no observational skills considering we had to pay to get in and Area 15 is not the kind of place a normal person would expect to find a supermarket in. Still, she had no idea what was going on. So imagine her surprise when she crawls through a hole in the back of a tent, only to emerge in a freaking fever dream. In short, she had loads of fun in the place, but understood absolutely none of the story and may not have even known that there was a story to understand.

I went with my friends with no idea what it was, just that it was an "art installation", and I'll never forget the moment I opened the fridge in the kitchen and walked into the light up tunnel and into what felt like an alternate reality.

I visited Omega Mart back in April, and let me tell you, it is absolutely wonderful. I wasn't able to get too far in what the story was, I was a bit stuck on the first puzzle, but my parents ended up finishing the whole thing (it was a family trip). They still refuse to tell me the story and say I should've discovered it for myself. Maybe I'll impulsively road trip down to Area 15 again just to finish where I left off.
Pretty rad parents
“To create, for the sheer delight of creation, is perhaps the purest form of creation”
Thanks for this. It reminds me of the time I started a "band" in 2007 because it was fun and a great way to spend time with friends and escape a stressful job. The band never existed and never made any music, but we had a manifesto and an entangled history. A social experiment and a whisper farm. And it exploded into all sorts of crazy on MySpace and we got threatened by local mafia club owner. From the pre -launch guerrilla graffiti poster campaign, "collabs" with artists/ musos/filmagraphers/ designers, secret "exclusive" gigs, secured gigs at city's most demanded venues.... It kinda a peaked out when a drunken stranger was hitting on me, humble bragging about how he'd managed to get into a secret gig to see his favourite underground band. I asked a few questions. He told me a story about Karen O and Julian Casablancas being in the group of 23 audience members the night before, and the two key bands members Pussy Thomas and Miss Meow Mew. Everyone joining in to adapt a few of the songs. Garage percussion with found object instruments. It was all filmed on a Super 8 camera but no-one could figure out where to get it processed. He told me about Miss Meow... he was a result of creative energy flowing in strange unexpected ways. He believed, and for a moment I considered telling him, challenging him, pulling the Polaroids out of my handbag. But I didn't. It was too pure and punk rock. He had just gotten a Meow tattoo, and it was perfection. The band spilt up a week later; creative differences and an attempted homicide. The Vacuous Whores may come back if Pussy and Meow are in the same city again, who knows.
I feel fascinated by the artistry behind this. You can enter this building which is a mix of novelty item store, amusement park, art gallery, and an sctual super market.
I love how un-pretentious they seem. Like, if you want to get really into the lore you can, but if you just want to walk around and have a fun, trippy experience, they're also cool with that too. So fucking wholesome.
Did not expect that guy to hit the vape during the interview lol
this team of artists is absolutely incredible, a couple years ago while on a road trip to the four corners we stopped in Santa Fe, New Mexico and the person at the motel we were staying at suggested we go to Meow Wolf and it was such an incredible experience unlike anything else. It’s what got me into ARG’s like I highly recommend that if you are able to go see their work you should definitely do it

Hello! Third shift grocery worker here, it's my job to pack things out onto the floor, so I generally have a good idea if we do or do not have an item in the back. If I don't think we do, I'll say it, but I'll still offer to go and look to see if we do. When I'm back there, I'll go through the four or so spaces that the product might actually be and give it a good look through. If I come back empty handed - and sometimes I do - it's because we just genuinely don't have the item in stock at the moment. :C Which sucks, especially because of how prevalent stocking issues have been since crown germ hit.

Holy god I wanna go here so SO bad. This is one of the COOLEST conceptual things I’ve ever EVER heard of and it breaks my heart to not be able to go explore it in person. It makes me so happy to see that independent artists are still able to produce pure art like this to this scale and be successful with it. There’s so many stories and works online that are art pieces on their own and that would flourish even more with an opportunity to take things to a bigger scale, but it always seems a little hopeless when you see the repetitive stuff being produced by triple A companies or Hollywood. So it’s just great to see something like this haha

A few years ago, I went to the Meow Wolf House of Eternal Return, and that place was wild. The whole thing felt like a daze or when you're so tired that you think you're dreaming while you're awake. Freakin crazy.
At this point I don’t even remember how I originally found out about Omega Mart. I know I’d seen both physical ads as well as commercials, but every time I did I felt like I somehow already knew about the place, like it had always been there.

You never get to see people take art seriously and create things you can touch and go to physically and appreciate the way it looks. I’ve seen things like this from decades ago but it would be for kids or at a museum, mostly places where you can’t play. It almost makes me tear up to see this actually existing and how fully realized it is. We all take everything incredibly serious it’s nice to see something imaginative and so fun to look at. There should be more stuff like this. People should support stuff like this and drag shows and theater ect.
The amusement park of the modern era
Interactive stuff like this reminds me of being at the portland science museum or whatever (across from the zoo) where you could touch the starfish or do some weird science project and get to see how things actually work like the hands on exhibits they seem to only have had for children Idk I was young
Things like this were really trying to take off when I was in college the first time around, from 08 to 12. I’m so envious of these artists. They got to do what I had always dreamed of doing. I went back to school in 2014 for a multidisciplinary degree, focusing on museum studies, archives, history, conservation, and art history. I had wanted to marry art and history and create ways for the public to interact and learn about it outside of museum settings. Unfortunately, I became permanently disabled and am housebound now, but seeing things like this project makes me happy.
Sounds like you'd dig Secret Cinema - at the moment they're UK based but pre 2020 they had plans to expand to the US and China. Check them out, they're incredible
Drag shows?
Stuff like this is SO COOL, seeing the wild "alternate reality" in the back of the cooler made me lose my mind, I hadn't realized how much I had wanted a big museum kinda place that has a focus on just... playin pretend and being in a game. gives me the same kinda thrill that i had when i first played an escape room. There's definitely a market for this kinda stuff for an older crowd, I would be thrilled to see more weird art projects like this popping up.
It was amazing. Living in Vegas can be cool and this addition made it so much better. I went with my friends and we ended up trying to communicate scrounge and solve the mystery. We were there for SIX WHOLE HOURS. The experience and visuals were transformative. The discoveries are so satisfying. The story is pretty fun but also weird and kinda creepy and super mysterious. I've heard of people not even having a clue that there is a story and thinking there's nowhere else to go other than the supermarkets. Most people don't find out the majority of its secrets or how it actually functions. I feel like there's still more I need to know. We had to leave only bc we were physically worn out. Only complaint is that we had no idea we needed to eat and drink beforehand bc they don't allow them in the store unless you're buying from their expensive foods.
The true thing that nobody noticed is that Omega Mart is actually Mega Art!

I went to Omega Mart in March of this year and it was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I went in having done no previous research intentionally, so I could authentically investigate and learn the story. All of the clues and details and range from intentional and direct to obscure and well concealed. The layout allows for unbridled exploration in a way that can be as structured as you would like it to be. For those who are less interested in the story and more interested in the ambiance are given ample opportunity to enjoy while not sacrificing the effect of the installation. The staff only adds to it all, giving their unique perspectives and back stories. I could go on for ages about Omega Mart and how phenomenal of an immersive experience it was, and if you were on the fence about going, this is your sign to just go. The ticket price is absolutely worth it.
This whole ARG has so much lore, it's incredible
my favourite thing about omega mart is the ominous warning of "you have no idea what's in store for you".
This is really really cool. Thank you for putting more eyes on it.
This is so cool and so impressive!! I love how immersive everything is
I love this whole community so much. I mean people like you, Night Mind, Dad, anyone that takes something creative and gets to make something incredible out of it. This story, even aside from how fun the arg itself seems, is really inspiring. It's awesome that they got to make their passion project truly come to life like never before. I truly hope and believe that this community will never cease to amaze me.
it feels like it can only grow from here, for all of us who are still wanting to explore...❤
Yeah, I love args. I love bees, this, dad, all are cool.
The idea that omega mart as an evolving instillation with a story that people can potentially unlock further aspects of just appeals to me so much on that D&D storyteller world builder DM way. The setting exists but it requires players to make it come alive and set it in motion. Meow Wolf’s idea here is absolutely brilliant in so many ways it combines so many elements of ARG with the LARPing aspects of role playing in a murder mystery dinner party or in an escape room. With the idea of a paranormal supermarket inspired art instillation with a parallel reality themed touch museum. Its basically an arg that takes the form of a physical location. Its so hard to define because on a way this is in itself an entirely new art form. It’s an art instillation but it’s not just that. Trying to Define it is like trying to explain a modern video game to someone in the 1700’s the best you can do is try and relate it to paintings, live theatre, and music.
I love that if you look up Omega Mart on google it lists it as an actual grocery store. But I’m really glad that this video didn’t try and explain the story of Omega Mart in depth. I think it’s best that people actually visit the exhibit and experience it for themselves.
I would pay to watch a feature length film about Omega Mart. It’s lore is immaculate
I start to realise how many cool concepts have been emerging lately, so inspireing and I'm hyped for everything future concepts will bring along with them.
Ohhhhh, everyone’s dying because they mistook Omega Mart lemons for lemons.
That's _WHY_ you have to prepare them _BEFORE YOU EAT THEM,Silly?!_
Better than drinking the orange drink... *shudders*
@@KeruuKatI’m pretty sure trump drank the orange drink.
Whoever dreamt this into reality are absolute frickin' geniuses! Huge thank you for covering this, as it's honestly my very 1st introduction. Now, I can't wait to visit in 2023!🤞
What?
@@Dirtz350 - Vegas in on my Mom's bucket list. She has always wanted to go to see the lights & the Grand Canyon. I'm her travel buddy, but we don't gamble. (cause we only ever lose. lol) So, _this_ is what I wanna visit while in Vegas!

This is pretty awesome. The resources and time committed to develop this... Pretty awesome how they pulled it together.
when i first saw ads for it, I thought it was going to be like Gemini or Local 58 but it seems less terrifying and kinda funny like the hand just grabbing the lemon
FINALLY MEOW WOLF GETTING THE LOVE IT DESERVES
I hope some days they can get a tv show or a video game or both.
@@100madmic or even getting books or stuff like that
It needs it
That advertisement is one of the only ones on this platform I truly wanted to watch
I got the the chance to go last week! It was amazingly fun and there’s honestly no way to see everything in just one go. Next time we hit vegas, we’re diving in again. I won’t spoil the story…but I did buy one of the lore books from Rose and it’s been fun to go through
What an amazing way to experience and share a story. True immersive entertainment.
The only time I’ll ever be sad I’m not American.
Same
They are going to make meow wolf locations in other areas as well, so even though you might not have omega mart, you might be able to go to somewhere similar
The only time I'll be happy to be American
Same I’m a Canadian but after seeing this I wish I lived in America
I'm Brazilian and never wanted to go to the US but damn, this made me tempted!
I laughed so loud when George R. R. Martin showed up that I scared the cat.
my mom and little brothers went to omegamart a while back, as someone who love args/art projects like this, it was really cool having my family experience something like this for the first time with something that im extremely familiar with
Wherever tf does the editing for the sponsored segments deserves all the love, they make me laugh so much eveytime I re-watch your vids. And in the eve of my seasonal depression starting back up again, it's super needed 💙💜
This installation is deadass expecting us to perform collaborative expeditions complete with camera footage, then take our findings and find a solution together. This is impressive!
That hunt-a-killer ad was one of the best sponsorship ads I've ever seen! A lot more fun less stagnate.
Thank you for introducing me to such an awesome and interesting art piece and arg! I cannot wait to see your findings!
