Inside the Sound

Virtual Reality
2018
Stereo Sound

Continuing our explorations into new forms of audio­visual synaesthetic experience, Inside the Sound is a series of immersive VR environments that embraces the potential of CGI, audio-reactive design and virtual reality. Each of the six environments takes the form of an infinitely looping audio­visual creation, which visualises the sensations triggered by its sounds, allowing the viewer to explore a multisensory space in ways only achievable in 360º.

The soundtracks are composed by our long-term collaborator Simon Pyke. They each have a sensation of intensifying drama, created using a technique called Shepard tone, an auditory illusion in which sounds appear to continually ascend in pitch.
