This is the initial experiment in a 1 year AHRC Digital Transformations project run jointly between Birmingham Conservatoire’s Integra Lab and Glasgow School of Art’s Digital Design Studios. The project will explore the creative applications of 3D sound manipulation, specifically sound spatialisation.

In this first experiment a basic UI is established where sounds can be dragged from a palette into a virtual 3D space and moved around by dragging with the mouse.

This initial experiment was developed in Unity 3D using the 3Dception plugin by TwoBigEars for binaural positioning.

Headphone listening essential!
