You might ask: Why do this physically when I can play the video game "Grounded" or watch "Ant-Man"?

Because the "After School Shrinking Adventure" uses proprioception—your body’s ability to sense movement, action, and location.

A screen delivers the image of smallness, but the body remains passive.

The real adventure happens in the knees, the squinting eyes, and the whisper of "Whoa, look at the dust." It is a full-body narrative.
