The Intersection of Imagination, Technology and Play: Baron Von Opperbean’s the River of Time

This week, UofM Alumnus and Barron Von Opperbean (BVO) CCO/Co-Founder, Marvin Stockwell, and BVO CEO, Jee Vahn Knight, joined Leia Harper in the studio to discuss the revitalization of Memphis’ historic Mud Island Museum. Coming soon, the River of Time, an “immersive playground set within a creative universe” is set to shape a story-driven realm of art, gamification and interactive discovery of the Mississippi River. BVO is honoring the legacy of Mud Island by allowing attendees to create a story for themselves within the Memphis-based multiverse.

 

BVO and the River of Time is set to open its first portals in early 2026.

 

Proudly hosted by the Fogelman College of Business and Economics at the University of Memphis, the Business in Blue podcast aims to highlight success stories, expert advice, and of course, all things business in Memphis.
