The Freshwater Narwhal Hoax uses drawing, video, sound and props to document the exploits and downfall of the fictitious explorers Banvard and Barnum Orson. The two partners in crime are banished from the scientific community due to fraudulent research, “marine biology misconduct” and the grounding and loss of a valuable icebreaker. Determined to rebuild their reputations and achieve the fame and glory they have always desired, the brothers delve into highly suspect whale research and begin to weave a complicated and fraudulent tale for the press.
