SPECIAL SESSION 9: “Composing the Past – Immersive Environments in Humanities Research” – Jonathan Berger & Cobi van Tonder
What if we could not only see but also hear and compose within the lost soundscapes of history? Advances in immersive audio and visual technologies are redefining how we reconstruct, analyze, and even compose within historical spaces. This session explores how spatialized sound, virtual acoustics, and interactive performance environments breathe […]
