SOUND/IMAGE 2024 Festival

Mediated Spaces and Immersion

7 November – 10 November 2024

University of Greenwich 

Concerts / Performances / Screenings / Talks / Workshops / Installations 

SOUND/IMAGE 2024 will collaboratively question how our chosen sound and image media fabricate, articulate and question our spaces of experience. And how these spaces we enact, provide affective and engaging experiences to immerse audiences.  

Spatial multichannel audio situates the listener in immersive soundfields, while films –  projected either inside or out of frames – transmit forms and textures onto new surfaces. LIDAR scans and photogrammetry paint 3D models of architectures which enable us to explore unbounded, traversing impossible trajectories. Installations create durational happenings which invite audiences to engage around and through them, while performances render spaces of experience through the articulation of liveness and the fleeting moment. 

Through a rich complementary programme of talks, screenings, loudspeaker orchestra concerts and workshops – SOUND/IMAGE 2024 will bring together diverse perspectives to stimulate discussion, debate and reveal new insights upon questions of mediated space and immersion across and between fields, including music, film, architecture, performance and digital arts.
