CfP: Everyday is Spatial: Creative Immersive Audio Practice
University of Gloucestershire
16.06.2022
Deadline: 31.01.2022
Immersive Audio is making its presence felt as a mainstream format with recent global events driving forward the technology and demand.
Where once immersive audio might have been experiences that were exclusive in terms of access, and challenging to produce for anyone without specialist tools, we now find ourselves in a world populated by increasing availability of technologies for creative practitioners.
Populating this new ‘soundscape’ is now the question that can start to move beyond the confines of technology access and consider how ideas, concepts and practices afford the potential of new modes of auditory experience at a time when hearing, listening and connecting are vital to global change.
We welcome all practitioners working in this medium to share their experiences and ideas as works and discussion.
Themes can draw from any source in which immersive audio is a critical factor.
How immersive audio might be enabling your practice and research is the focus but broader thematic responses might consider:
Immersive Music Production - emerging practices
Audio Realism & Hyper-realism
Soundscape and renewed environmentalism
Immersive events - examples of immersive sound design for attended events
Spatial audio - communicating in the age of audio attention economies
