The Collider Project

2026 Presented by Encounter, in partnership with Mammalian Diving Relfex (Toronto) & Amana Living.

In a time of disillusionment and division — watch two generations collide.

Collider is a project that brings together two vastly different age groups to engage with each other in several activities over many weeks, finally culminating in a presentation.

This social experiment will explore relationships in all their forms — familial, platonic and romantic — and will reveal how love has both changed and how it has stayed the same.

The framework for this project has been provided by Mammalian Diving Reflex, and is designed to encourage differing demographics to socialise and interact with each other in ways they typically would not. Amana Living — WA's largest not-for-profit aged-care company — has provided the majority of our older participants.
