During his IASPIS residency he will explore the potential of Dolby Atmos in developing immersive, participatory sound-image works at the intersection of expanded cinema and participatory art. Through a workshop and focused studio time, he will revisit Åčçëñtß, (2019), an audiovisual and live choral piece exploring accents as a musical material in our everyday voice created during his time as Glasgow’s UNESCO City of Music artist-in-residence, 2018. This research will prove the groundwork for devising a new live choral work intended to take place in a large-format cinema space.
