Come experience a surround-sound project! SOFAM student Nathan Mejia presents his work using Ambisonics software in the powerful and adaptable Max environment. This system interprets specific locations in 3D space in order to produce sound samples and place them within a surround sound environment. Many avenues of data interpretation are being explored in this project, which complements the intersection of music and image technology in the specific context of accessibility, fashion, and bodily movement.
