Mobile Audioscape

My main activity is the development and programming for the Audioscape Project, which involves anything to do with spatial organization of audio content and sound processing. Generally speaking, we provide the ability to create virtual worlds that function as musical interfaces or installation.

Most recently, however, we have started to add the ability to include mobile and location-based environments, in the outdoors. By using tiny mobile computing devices, GPS, and ad-hoc wireless audio streaming, we have managed to create shared mixed-reality audio environments that multiple users can experience while roaming around outdoors.

The bulk of this development occurred during the Almost Perfect locative media residency at the Banff Centre New Media Institute in November of 2007.

More information about this project can be found on the Mobile Audioscape page, and below is a video that was filmed during the residency in Banff:
