Via access to the latest technologies for sound and image, our research explores the potential in constructing, and articulating enveloping media environments. Our experience of the world is fundamentally spatial, but so often in history the multidimensional has been collapsed into more simplisitic two dimensional fields. We explore Spatial Audio, Multi-channel composition, 360º video projection, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Game Engines and performance.
