2/3 On what I thought was the last track, I got a call from a friend who needed help, and left the studio.
Returning, I played what I had done … and couldn’t believe it; it was glorious – a breakthrough I’ve been working towards my entire life.
My humble little studio is now the best #immersive space I’ve ever experienced.
And those throwaway tracks are just backing for what I’ll add as the emotion carries me.
Lola is the best audience; she looks around the room as the sound moves. (more …)

After a couple years of researching, planning, sacrificing, and assembling a 7.1.6 #DolbyAtmos system in my studio,
I used my main DAW (Digital Performer) to draft my #immersive music workflow on a quickly improvised piece.
Without prep, I played a 3-minute piano take in 5.1 surround, keeping the sloppy first pass. Then I added stereo pairs using the surround and #Atmos height channels.

I don't get why there are so many mods turning Skyrim into dark souls...
That combat style is just not fun imo. Nobody is doing dodge rolls in heavy armour and carrying a sword...

My cousin Philip Ng told me to check out an #exhibit of his #film Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In and that it had a life-size figure of him. A couple weeks ago I did, and look what/who's the very first thing you see when you enter. 
Phil's was the only character featured like this, and people were posing with him—wild. #Immersive #exhibition at Airside (a new #mall designed by #architecture firm Snøhetta) in Kai Tak (where the old airport used

Finally, you can listen to many of the monologues and other scenes from my interactive environment “Shelter (Zuflucht)” on the internet.
On the web page of the work, I linked six sound examples and a compilation for you. With this work, I try to describe an escape situation from the inside.

Guadalupe Maravilla’s “Mariposa Relámpago” is an elaborate school bus devoid of bench seats and adorned with more than 700 found objects. Merging sculpture, performance, and healing, the artist's project is highlighted in Art21's new film, which also recounts Maravilla's experience of immigrating to the United States.

Speaking of #XR and #immersive tech:
If you're in Brussels this week, make sure to stop by at #Stereopsia.
Four #SERMAS sub-projects (all of them contributors to our open-source XR/AI toolkit) are part of the EU village:
3DforXR Langswitch Prinia XR Shield
Exhibitions that recycle classic paintings and combine them with other media assets and historical context make great show cases for #XR and #immersive #video technology.
But is this #art? And does it matter?
