Tour into the Music

Tour into the music is a spatial audio demonstration. Presented is a 3D (graphical and audio) virtual orchestra in which a viewer can freely move through a performance hall to hear a musical performance from different auditory perspectives. This includes being far away from the stage or standing right next to any instrument being played during the performance. The user can even solo individual instruments and rearrange the musicians in real-time. Work is in collaboration with the GVU Audio Lab. This is work in progress.
