Abstracted Violin and Natural Sounds Create a Three-Dimensional Sound Space
Abstracted violin and natural sounds generate a three-dimensional sound space
that represents a synthetic forest. At the same time, the violin and fulldome
video projection immerse themselves in this space, becoming part of it,
distinguishing themselves from it, and oscillating between disorientation
and synergetic connection.
This creates an audiovisual dialogue between human intuition and algorithmic
precision, drawing the audience into a visual soundscape where the boundaries
between synthetic and natural soundscapes become fluid—thus inherently
raising the question of humanity’s relationship with nature.
