Project Details

Fakespace Music presents a stereoscopic virtual reality world that is driven and synchronized to music inputs. 
 
Utilizing the Soundsculpt Toolkit, a software interface allows the world of music to communicate with graphical elements of virtual reality. Cues such as rhythm and frequency are extracted through analysis and mapped to individual object behaviors. 
 
This music-driven virtual reality offers new opportunities for artistic and entertainment experiences.
