Abstract

Aisling (dream) 2022 is an AV piece which explores the potential of working with different 3D technologies which are used to create and project 3D sound (ambisonics and the IKO loudspeaker) and 3D environments (Unity Game Engine).
Field recordings have been deconstructed and processed, and combined with synthesised sounds which simulate natural sound events to create a hyper-real soundscape which reflects the artificial and virtual landscape within the visuals. The sounds are encoded to 3rd order ambisonics so they can be projected by the IKO 3D loudspeaker to create an immersive experience.
The piece was inspired by the travel restrictions imposed on us during various lockdowns during the Covid pandemic, with the aim of creating a place where people could go to experience a calming environment.
